It was just after seven pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! James and me were resting there going over the recent rugby, prepared for the sixth job that day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Upper Clapton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Land Rover rental car by mistake. She was very distressed apparently, stating "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a safe space and, since it was only a few minutes off from us, we were able to reach the woman almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was residing in. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less anxious. Another fuel drain in Lewisham well done in my books!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.
AdBlue In Diesel
In Lewisham we have identified increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not being totally sure the right way to use it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.
So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely take care not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank may result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases fairly expediently.
Take note however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to parking spot we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Lewisham to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly empty it.
Run Out of Fuel Services
Run out of fuel in Upper Clapton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Lewisham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will handle any of the standard troubles that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.
Fuel Drain Upper Clapton - Upper Clapton Wrong Fuel Assist
A customer had stopped just off a road in Upper Clapton. His Audi car had ceased running and he had no idea what was faulty until eventually he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He called us to get a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I can not believe that I did not comprehend that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He stated that he had got very little sleep the evening before and that could have been the reason why.
Recent Fuel Drains in Upper Clapton

We were phoned by a individual whose Lexus had ground to a halt on a road because he put the wrong fuel in it. "I mixed up the pumps and pumped the wrong fuel in my vehicle in error. You arrived and fixed the situation when my vehicle quit." We drained the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines thoroughly and the customer could then continue on with his deliveries.
Vehicle Misfuel Upper Clapton - Upper Clapton Fuel Drain
This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been rather quiet thus far, and John and I were relaxing looking through several old articles. That was an uncommon quiet time in Lewisham. It was that tranquil that the moment the telephone eventually rang I jumped! The voice stated: "I've only just finished my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in a Honda in error". I told him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was and we left, ending up in Upper Clapton 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the car and he thanked us profusely for coming so promptly. As we were heading back to the depot we found two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. So we pulled up to change it, to their delight.
Fuel Rescue Upper Clapton - Upper Clapton Wrong Fuel in Car
I appreciated a terrific day golfing on my holiday and was feeling cheerful with myself the following working day as I was en route to help a new family away in Upper Clapton. They'd conked out after adding petrol in their Vauxhall, and were about an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal telling off her partner for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing occurs quite frequently in Lewisham and that it's truly nothing to be concerned about, and yet he all the same got an ear bashing. Poor chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and pondered on what my wife would do to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
