It was just before five pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry night, it had not stopped raining! James and I were sitting there discussing the golf rankings, waiting around for the 6th job to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Mortlake and filled petrol in a diesel Mitsubishi lease car by mistake. The poor lady was rather affected by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things can happen. She managed to get the car to a secure space and, as it was only a short distance from our van, we could arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to return to the hotel she was lodging in.

Our Areas of Competency :
Below are the top services we provide to our clients.
AdBlue In Diesel
All over Richmond upon Thames we have seen more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.
Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
Assuming you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously take care not to switch on the motor - not even to move it off the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel can easily result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases very swiftly.
Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking bay we can access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Fuel Drain Mortlake - Mortlake Wrong Fuel Drain
I had enjoyed a terrific evening fishing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied the following working day as I set off to aid a new family vacationing in Mortlake. They stopped after adding diesel in their Suzuki, and the car was about an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal telling her man off for being so stupid. "How could you even be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this problem occurs regularly in Richmond upon Thames and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, nevertheless he all the same got an earful. Poor guy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive off I waved so long and pondered on what my wife would tell me if perhaps I made the very same error... I would personally never live it down!
