It was after 9 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased pouring! Ryan and I were sitting talking over the weekend's tennis rankings, prepared for the next telephone call to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Petts Wood and put the wrong fuel in a diesel SEAT lease car. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected position and, as it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and not so stressed. A misfuel correction in Bromley well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed in case you have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is certainly harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be squirted into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously take care not to start the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to take care of in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol will likely cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases very expediently.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container sitting in the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Bromley for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, providing we can get to it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Petts Wood (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Bromley Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the standard troubles which could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Petts Wood - Petts Wood Petrol in Diesel

I had a wonderful day hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling satisfied the next day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Petts Wood. They'd stopped after filling diesel into their BMW, and were roughly half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and smirked while I heard to the gal telling her husband off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this happens constantly in Bromley and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted so long and considered what my missus would tell me if I made the exact same error... I'd never live it down!
