It was just before eight pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not ceased pouring! James and I were seated there talking about the recent sports results, waiting around for the next telephone call of the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Lower Clapton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Chevrolet hire car. She was rather affected it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we were able to reach her without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying at.

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lewisham we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And certainly don't crank the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to handle in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol may trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations fairly quickly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Lewisham to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Recent Fuel Drains in Lower Clapton

Just a few of the standard stories we come across from our engineers in Lower Clapton:

I am not too excited about doing work on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had just left the wife and kids following a superb Sunday roast made by the missus, and I was on the way to sort out a gentleman after he had put the wrong fuel in his Porsche. He was stationed in Lower Clapton and so I arrived on scene before long. Just as I arrived right behind the car and started work he said to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my mind on other considerations and failed to realise I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I inflicted some problems as a result of running it?" I explained there should not be any problems and that I would get the fuel drained immediately for him. Needless to say I removed the fuel from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and so one more contented motorist could carry on with their journey without hassle. The man could hardly stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make operating on weekends in Lewisham just that little bit better for me personally!

A woman driving in Lower Clapton contacted us as soon as she had tried to get her misfueled automobile to work. She had filled unleaded in her diesel Ford and, like countless before her, assumed that she would be able to basically fill up the vehicle with diesel and it'd be no problem. The vehicle was coughing and then it stopped when she reached the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted inside an hour or so whilst she was working. She came out soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm very happy you fixed my vehicle."
