Wrong Fuel Holland Park - Holland Park Wrong Fuel Drain

Just had a good night's sleep! It was 7:30 on a warm Monday and we were en route to help an older woman who had put petrol in her diesel Chevrolet in Holland Park. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a rural lane on route to visit her family. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I reached the destination and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel since I had just bought it a few days ago when my old one, which I had owned for over twenty five years, eventually died on me". I completed the drain and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Kensington lady!

Our Areas of Expertise:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Kensington we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it immediately. And certainly be careful not to turn over the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank may well lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases quite simply.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we can reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of the garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Kensington for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even several containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Holland Park (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Kensington Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the standard problems which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car Holland Park - Holland Park Wrong Fuel Assist

I appreciated a terrific evening cycling during my off day and was feeling contented the following day as I set off to assist a new family who were away in Holland Park. They stopped after putting petrol in their Jaguar, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the lady telling her hubby off for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this problem goes on all the time in Kensington and that it's nothing to be anxious about, but he yet still got his ear bent. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching as they drove away I mouthed farewell and thought about what my wife would say to me if ever I made the same error... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

We a few weeks ago received a phone call from a businessman who had put the wrong fuel in his Mazda in Holland Park. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "I couldn't believe how speedy you were in sending a technician out to assist me after I filled my diesel car with petrol. Thank you ever so much". Needless to say we were on-scene promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. The customer was over the moon by the time we finished and he drove off completely happy.

He had decided to fill up before continuing on to the nearby recreation park . "I put petrol rather than diesel which probably wasn't a great way to begin to our holiday break."

A gentleman phoned us from his home on a street in Holland Park. He pronounced, "My car (a Mercedes) is not starting and is producing terrible noises when I turn the ignition." He said that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle however thought he would solve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up once more with fresh Diesel. He told us that he would be sure to educate people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.
