It was after eight pm on a Monday and while we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and I were seated talking about the tennis results, waiting for the seventh job of the day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Ealing and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda rental by mistake. She was rather distressed apparently, stating "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from where we were, we could arrive at her almost instantly.

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Ealing we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly don't start the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to address in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Remember though that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir at the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in Ealing for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Ealing (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Ealing Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to fix the standard problems which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Ealing - Ealing Fuel Drain

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon golfing during the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I set off to help a new family on holiday in Ealing. They'd broken down after adding diesel in their Dacia, and were roughly half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked as I listened to the girl telling her man off for being so silly. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this situation happens all the time in Ealing and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky guy. Anyways, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. Watching them drive off I waved bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
