It was just after 5 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there discussing the recent footy, ready for the next job to come in. Eventually we had a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Osidge and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel SEAT lease car. She was rather troubled apparently, crying "I simply can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was only a short distance from us, we were able to reach her without delay. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive away contented and much less worried. A job in Barnet well done in my books!

Our Services:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Barnet we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And of course take care not to turn over the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the event that you have started the car you would likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel may well bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases rather simply.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Barnet to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.
