It was before 9 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and me were resting going over the weekend's football results, waiting for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Motspur Park and filled petrol in a diesel Smart rental by mistake. She was quite affected it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off calm and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Kingston upon Thames well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Kingston upon Thames we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not being aware of the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And definitely do not turn over the motor - not even to move it to a parking area. In cases where you did start the car you may probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol may produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases fairly simply.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir in the rear of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Kingston upon Thames to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Motspur Park (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Kingston upon Thames Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They are also able to handle any of the usual issues which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Motspur Park - Motspur Park Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman rang us from his residence on a close in Motspur Park. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Vauxhall) is not starting up and is generating dreadful noises when I turn the ignition." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then thought he would fix the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he would be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it drained right away.
