It was before 6 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were relaxing talking about the weekend's rugby results, prepared for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Old Bexley and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably do happen. She was able to get the car to a safe area and, because it was only a short distance away from us, we were able to find her rather quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at.

Below are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Bexley we have seen progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not knowing the way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you discover youself to be in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the practical skills and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will often contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances rather quickly.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Bexley for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we are able to drain it.
