It was about eight pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Dan and me were resting there commenting on the weekend's football rankings, at the ready for the 6th call that day to come in. Before long we got the call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in North Kensington and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat hire car. She was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could get to her without delay. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could return to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home relaxed and less anxious. Another job in Kensington and Chelsea well done in my books!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Kensington and Chelsea we are noticing a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not understanding how to work with it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly don't turn over the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we can reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel container sitting in the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Kensington and Chelsea for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a shed, if we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in North Kensington (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Kensington and Chelsea Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to deal with the most common troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain North Kensington - North Kensington Wrong Fuel Drain

A man rang us from his house on a road in North Kensington. He said, "My car (a Volkswagen) is not running and is producing terrible sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would resolve the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He said he would be certain to advise people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
