Our Areas of Expertise :
Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.
AdBlue Contamination
In Lambeth we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part thanks to people being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the car.
Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And absolutely do not switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations pretty swiftly.
Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Lambeth to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of fuel in Herne Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Lambeth Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your automobile.

On the next paragraphs are responses and instances of contaminated fuel removal done in Herne Hill:
I'm not actually too inclined to doing the job weekends, and last week was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids after eating a fantastic Sunday roast made by the better half, and I was en route to assist a gentleman who had filled the wrong petrol in his Audi. He was located in Herne Hill and so it wouldn't be long before I got to him. Just as I arrived right behind the car and started work he told me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my concentration on other stuff and failed to ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused any kind of damage through running it?" I revealed that generally there should not be any kind of harm and that I'd personally drain the wrong fuel at once. It goes without saying that I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and then another satisfied client had the ability to continue on his journey without any subsequent difficulty. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is actually what can make working on weekends in Lambeth a tiny bit less painful in my opinion!
