It was just after 5 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were relaxing commenting on the recent sports, waiting for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we got a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Bounds Green and filled petrol in a diesel Chevrolet rental in error. She was quite troubled apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a safe position and, seeing as it was only a short distance from us, we were able to get to the woman without delay. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in Haringey done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Haringey we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of people not knowing how to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it immediately. And of course be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the car you will in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel is going to produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases quite swiftly.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle was started 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 thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank sitting in the rear of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Haringey to deal with taking away and recycling 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 a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a shed, provided that we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Bounds Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Haringey Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill the car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to fix any of the common issues which might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Bounds Green - Bounds Green Fuel Drain

Last monday a young man telephoned us after his MINI stopped working along a road in Bounds Green. He had unintentionally put unleaded in his diesel motor and drove so far as the road before having to stop. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our technical engineer, who lives not far away, was with him in less than ten minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel back in the vehicle. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 2 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
