It was just after seven pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and me were resting talking about the recent footy results, at the ready for the sixth telephone call to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Upper Walthamstow and filled petrol in her diesel Ford lease car in error. The poor lady was quite affected apparently, telling me "I can not believe I have messed up the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this regrettably can happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe area and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to get to the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less concerned. A misfuel correction in Waltham Forest done well in my opinion!

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Waltham Forest we are identifying more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly take care not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the car you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel is likely to cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances very easily.

Remember that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial premises in Waltham Forest for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Upper Walthamstow (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Waltham Forest Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill the car. They are also able to deal with the standard troubles that could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
