It was around five pm on a Friday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were resting there going over the recent tennis results, ready for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Maida Vale and filled petrol in her diesel Nissan lease car in error. The poor lady was fairly affected it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, as it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to get to the woman swiftly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home contented and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Westminster done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Experience :

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Westminster we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not understanding the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to take care of in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may well produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations very quickly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank placed in the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Westminster for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Maida Vale (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Westminster Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They can also take care of the standard problems which could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Maida Vale - Maida Vale Fuel Drain

A gentleman had stopped just near a road in Maida Vale. His Hyundai engine had ceased functioning and he had no idea what was faulty till he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He stated that he had got virtually no sleep the evening before and that could have been precisely why.
