It was around five pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were seated there talking about the footy results, waiting around for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Coney Hall and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Porsche rental in error. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to move the car to a protected space and, seeing as it was only a short distance away from where we were, we were able to reach her quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home satisfied and a lot less worried. A job in Bromley well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Bromley we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you end up in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank is going to cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations rather simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container at the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial properties in Bromley to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of fuel in Coney Hall (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Bromley Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home.
