It was before 7 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased raining! Brian and I were seated commenting on the recent football, at the ready for the seventh telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Lisson Grove and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart rental car. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that things like this do happen. She had managed to move the car into a secure position and, seeing as it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to reach the woman right away. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away contented and less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Westminster well done in my opinion!

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Westminster we have identified progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not knowing the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And obviously don't crank the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you will probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will likely result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank laying at the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial properties in Westminster to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Lisson Grove (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Westminster Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They will handle the usual issues which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
