Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in the event that you may have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It is actually devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And definitely don't start up the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. Assuming you have started the car you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can potentially lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations fairly expediently.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Lewisham to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Catford - Catford Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a fantastic evening cycling during the weekend and was feeling pleased with myself the following day as I set out to aid a young family holidaying in Catford. They broken down after adding petrol in their Honda, and the car was about an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed to myself as I heard to the girl telling her hubby off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this situation happens quite frequently in Lewisham and that it's actually nothing to be anxious about, however he in spite of everything had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. At any rate, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and wondered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
