It was close to 8 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were seated talking about the footy results, ready for the seventh job that day to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Kilburn and put petrol in a diesel Volkswagen lease car in error. She was quite affected it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably happen. She was able to move the car into a safe space and, as it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could arrive at the woman right away. The wrong fuel was removed and she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off satisfied and less stressed. One more fuel drain in Brent done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :

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

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in case you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? Adblue can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pushed into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, leading to serious and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly never turn over the vehicle - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to handle in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases rather expediently.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in Brent for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Kilburn (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Brent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car. They will be able to take care of any of the common problems that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
