It was around five pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing talking about the recent tennis results, prepared for the next call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Northumberland Heath and put petrol in a diesel Smart lease car. The poor thing was somewhat irritated it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a protected area and, seeing that it was just a short distance from us, we were able to reach the lady right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off relaxed and not so concerned. Yet another job in Bexley well done in my mind!

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Bexley we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of people not knowing the right way to use it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Should you discover youself to be in this predicament don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the technical competence and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel can bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances very expediently.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to parking bay we can access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Bexley to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Fuel Removal Northumberland Heath - Northumberland Heath Fuel Removal

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon fishing during my holiday and felt contented with myself the next day as I set off to help a new family away in Northumberland Heath. They had conked out after adding petrol into their BMW, and they were around an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the lady chastising her man for being so foolish. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing occurs constantly in Bexley and that it's nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he yet still got his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove down the road I waved farewell and wondered what my wife would say to me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
