It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and I were resting talking about the golf, at the ready for the sixth job to arrive. In due time we had a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Hampton Hill and filled petrol in her diesel Dacia lease car. She was rather troubled apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this do happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe position and, since it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away contented and a lot less worried. Another fuel drain in Richmond upon Thames well done in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Richmond upon Thames we have found more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by motorists not knowing how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Should you get in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank will often bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances very simply.

Remember that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Richmond upon Thames for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages.

Petrol in Diesel Hampton Hill - Hampton Hill Wrong Fuel in Car

A person phoned us from his house on a road in Hampton Hill. He exclaimed, "My car (a Porsche) is not starting and is making awful sounds when I flip the key." He confessed that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would remedy the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the drain and filled him up once more with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained right away.
