It was just before 9 pm on a Monday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Priestwood Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly troubled apparently, saying "I can not believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was just a short distance away from our van, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in.

Our Areas of Expertise:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hackney we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to people not knowing the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously do not turn over the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations pretty easily.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir in the rear of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Hackney for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Priestwood Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Hackney Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will take care of any of the usual issues which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
