It was just after 10 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were resting talking about the golf results, ready for the 6th telephone call to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Plashet and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel MG hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was quite distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a protected space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from where we were, we could get to the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and less apprehensive. One more job in Southwark done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Experience :

Assisting you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Southwark we have found an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not understanding the right way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you find yourself in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the technical skills and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir at the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Southwark for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Plashet (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Southwark Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

Petrol in Diesel Plashet - Plashet Wrong Fuel in Car

What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and I was off to help an elder lady after she put petrol in her diesel Audi in Plashet. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up on a backwater lane on route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched into the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I arrived at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she told me, "I have been becoming relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd only acquired it a couple of days ago when my other one, which I had had for about twenty years, inevitably died". I finished the job and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Southwark lady!

Wrong Fuel Plashet - Plashet Fuel Removal

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and noone was stirring. It was rather dead up to now, and me and John were sitting about perusing several old magazines. It was an uncommon restful hour in Southwark. It was indeed that calm that the moment the telephone eventually rang it made me jump! The person explained: "I've just concluded my night shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes". We instructed him to let us know just where he was located and we left, ending up in Plashet only an hour later. The fuel was cleared from the engine and he said many thanks for getting there so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we spotted two girls at the side of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, to their delight.
