It was after 5 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not ceased raining! James and I were resting there commenting on the recent football rankings, ready for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Wimbledon and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda hire car in error. She was rather distressed apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could reach her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and less stressed. A fuel drain in Merton well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Merton we have noticed more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to people being unsure of the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at once. And definitely don't start up the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can potentially produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container laying in the rear of your premises full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Merton to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Wimbledon (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Merton Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your car. They will be able to deal with the common troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Wimbledon - Wimbledon Wrong Fuel

A gentleman had conked out off a road in Wimbledon. His Renault engine had ceased running and he'd no idea what was faulty right up until he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can not believe that I did not know that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got very little sleep the day before and that could have been precisely why.
