Petrol in your diesel car in Chelsea? You've come to the right place. We are here to assist you in this situatiuon and get you driving once again with our specialist fuel removal assistance.

It was before 6 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry evening, it had not given up on raining! Paul and I were seated discussing the weekend's rugby rankings, prepared for the 8th call to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Chelsea and put petrol in her diesel SEAT hire car by mistake. She was somewhat agitated apparently, saying "I just can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing that it was just a few miles away from where we were, we could find the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off satisfied and not so apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Chelsea well done in my mind!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution made from a mixture of deionized water and urea.It is actually devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly take care not to start the car - not even to move it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would probably need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel is likely to cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations quite quickly.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the back of the garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Chelsea for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Chelsea (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Chelsea Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They can also handle any of the most common issues that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Chelsea - Chelsea Wrong Fuel

I'd had a fantastic day fishing during my off day and felt pleased the next morning as I set off to aid a new couple on holiday in Chelsea. They had broken down after putting petrol into their Citroen, and were around half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smiled to myself as I heard to the girl telling her husband off for turning out to be so confused. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing goes on all the time in Chelsea and that it's in reality nothing at all to get worried about, even so he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove away I shouted goodbye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
