A somewhat concerned driver called us from the BP petrol station at Richmond upon Thames to inform us that he had put unleaded in to his diesel Toyota; he wasn't exactly certain how he'd done it. We assured him it was no problem and soon enough had our man out to him to drain the incorrect fuel from his car. Having taken away the contaminated fuel, he was soon enough back behind the wheel. He told us; "I am really surprised I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the chap who was sent to perform the fuel drain was extremely pleasant - he didn't make me appear stupid."

We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Richmond upon Thames we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not understanding the right way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And absolutely never turn over the car - not even to move it into a parking place. If perhaps you did start the car you may probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to address in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed in the back of your premises full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in Richmond upon Thames to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, providing we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Mortlake (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Richmond upon Thames Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill the car. They will fix the most common problems that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel Mortlake - Mortlake Wrong Fuel in Car

The other day a gentleman contacted us right after his Nissan stopped working in the middle of a road in Mortlake. He had accidentally put unleaded in his diesel motor and got so far as the road before being forced to stop. It was early in the day and our technician, who resides locally, reached him in approximately fifteen minutes. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in to the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your immediate response, particularly at 4 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."


Recent Fuel Drains in Mortlake

Some of the common facts we get from many of our engineers in Mortlake:

We fairly recently got a phone call from a motorist who had put the incorrect fuel in his Mercedes in Mortlake. He had ground to a halt on the street. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the dilemma up until the time it stopped working. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning . I was impressed by both your speed and your pricing". It goes without saying that we showed up promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. The driver was pleased as punch by the time we finished and he was able to drive away cheerful.

This was certainly the night shift. It was about sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had become pretty dead thus far, and me and Ray were relaxing looking through a couple of old newspapers. That was a rare quiet time in Richmond upon Thames. Actually it was indeed that tranquil that when my mobile eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The customer explained: "I ended my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda in error". We instructed him to let us know where exactly he was situated and we headed out, arriving in Mortlake only an hour later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the engine and he said thanks for showing up so quickly. As we were coming back to the office we noticed two women at the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.

I had appreciated a terrific day fishing on my off day and was feeling contented the following morning as I was en route to aid a young family who were on holiday in Mortlake. They had pulled over after filling petrol into their Kia, and the car was about an hour away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the girl chastising her hubby for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place on daily basis in Richmond upon Thames and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, but he yet still had an earful by his wife. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the proper fuel. While they drove off I mouthed so long and pondered on what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the exact same error... I'd never ever live it down!
