It was just after five pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were sitting there going over the recent football rankings, waiting for the 6th job that day to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Shoreditch and put petrol in a diesel Fiat lease car in error. She was quite agitated apparently, saying "I still can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this sadly can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe position and, as it was no more than a short distance from our van, we could get to the customer without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was living at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive off calm and not so worried. One more job in Hackney done well in my mind!

Our Services:

Listed here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do if you?ve poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely devastating to your car's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, bringing about serious and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly do not switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking area. If perhaps you did start the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is going to bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations rather expediently.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Hackney to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Shoreditch (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Hackney Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill the car. They will fix any of the most common issues which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
