It was close to 10 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and me were sitting talking over the sports, waiting around for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Wick and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes rental by mistake. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from our van, we could arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and a lot less concerned. One more fuel drain in Hackney done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

In Hackney we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists not being totally sure how to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find yourself in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to deal with in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can potentially trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations rather quickly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Hackney to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Wick (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Hackney Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your automobile any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to take care of any of the standard troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Wick - Wick Wrong Fuel

A man contacted us from his place on a close in Wick. He said, "My vehicle (a Skoda) is not starting up and is making very bad sounds when I turn the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would resolve the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up again with clean Diesel. He told us after that he would be sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
