Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Crossness

Petrol in diesel Crossness? We have the ability to support the Crossness region particularly well because one of our engineers stays locally and is as a result not far from the action. If you've got petrol in your diesel car in Crossness we'll be happy to come out and do a full fuel drain. Wrong fuel in diesel in Crossness needn't be a massive obstacle. We're merely a call away.

It was just before six pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were sitting going over the golf rankings, waiting for the 6th call that day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Crossness and put the wrong fuel in a diesel MG lease car. She was quite affected it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was only a short distance from our van, we could find the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and less worried. A fuel drain in Bexley well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Expertise:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? Adblue can be disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly be careful not to crank the car - not even to shift it into a parking area. If perhaps you did start the car you will probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir at the rear of the garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Bexley to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Crossness (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Bexley Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up the car. They will fix the usual issues that can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
