It was close to 8 pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and me were seated talking over the recent footy rankings, waiting around for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Ruxley and put petrol in a diesel Porsche rental car. The poor lady was very agitated it seemed, stating "I still can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, because it was just a short distance off from us, we were able to arrive at the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home contented and not so concerned. Another job in Bromley well done in my mind!

Provided Services: Our Specialties:

Below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in the event that you?ve put Adblue in your Diesel tank? It is certainly devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will be dragged into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And obviously do not turn over the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol will likely contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations fairly easily.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank sitting at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and business properties in Bromley for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of fuel in Ruxley (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Bromley Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your car or truck. They will deal with any of the usual issues that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Ruxley - Ruxley Fuel Rescue

I had enjoyed a terrific day hiking during my off day and was feeling delighted the following working day as I set off to aid a young couple who were away in Ruxley. They broken down after filling the wrong fuel into their SEAT, and were about half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled to myself as I heard to the girl telling her partner off for being so daft. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this takes place regularly in Bromley and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. As they drove off I waved so long and thought about what my wife would say to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
