Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue Contamination

In Westminster we have seen progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of people not knowing the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously be careful not to crank the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can certainly lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations fairly quickly.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Westminster to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Pimlico (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Westminster Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to deal with the typical troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

I had appreciated a great afternoon cycling during the weekend and was feeling pleased the following day as I was en route to help a new couple who were on holiday in Pimlico. They'd pulled over after filling petrol into their Kia, and were close to an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and laughed while I listened to the wife chastising her man for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs frequently in Westminster and that it's nothing to worry about, however he yet still had an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate chap. Anyway, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some correct fuel. As they drove off I waved good-bye and wondered what my wife would do to me if I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally never live it down!

With generations of combined contaminated fuel removal practical experience you couldn't be better served. Our technicians have come across it all and corrected almost everything. They are competent on the most up-to-date types and hold all relevant certificates.

I appreciated a perfect evening golfing on my holiday and was feeling delighted the following day as I set off to assist a young family who were holidaying in Pimlico. They had stopped after inserting petrol in their Renault, and the car was around half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled as I heard to the woman telling off her spouse for being so silly. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this situation goes on regularly in Westminster and that it's actually nothing at all to worry about, nevertheless he still had an earful. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I drained the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some correct fuel. While they drove off I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the same error... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
