It was before 10 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting going over the rugby, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Harrow on the Hill and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT hire car in error. She was rather affected it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, because it was only a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could get back to the motel she was living in. Although we got very drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and not so concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Harrow well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Harrow we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not understanding how to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at once. And absolutely take care not to start up the car - not even to shift it to a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will likely cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases very simply.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank in the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Harrow to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Harrow on the Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Harrow Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up the car. They will be able to deal with the common issues that may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
