It was just after 5 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were sitting discussing the tennis results, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Herne Hill and filled petrol in her diesel Skoda hire car by mistake. She was pretty irritated apparently, saying "I still can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe position and, because it was just a few minutes away from the office, we were able to reach the customer right away.

Our Areas of Expertise :

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s made out of a mix of ionized water and urea.Adblue tends to be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, causing catastrophic and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And of course be careful not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances quite simply.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in Lambeth to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Herne Hill (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Lambeth Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the typical issues that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Herne Hill - Herne Hill Wrong Fuel Assist

I had a great day cycling during my day off and felt pleased with myself the next morning as I was en route to assist a new couple on holiday in Herne Hill. They'd pulled over after adding the wrong fuel in their Fiat, and were approximately an hour's drive away. I showed up at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife berating her man for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this situation takes place on daily basis in Lambeth and that it's nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I drained out the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. While they drove away I waved bon voyage and wondered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
