It was about 9 pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! Paul and me were relaxing there going over the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Monument and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda rental. The poor thing was very affected it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things regrettably can happen. She managed to get the car into a safe spot and, because it was just a short distance from our van, we were able to get to her right away. The bad fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and much less concerned. A job in Lewisham done well in my mind!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Lewisham we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not understanding the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it immediately. And certainly never turn over the engine - not even to move it into a parking bay. In case you have started the car you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol may bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations quite swiftly.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel container placed at the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Lewisham to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, providing we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Monument (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Lewisham Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the most common issues that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Monument - Monument Fuel Removal

A guy had stopped just near a road in Monument. His Ford engine had stopped running and he'd no clue what was awry until eventually he noticed he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got zero sleep the night before and that could have been why.
