It was after 6 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and me were sitting there talking about the weekend's rugby, prepared for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we had the call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in New Cross Gate and filled petrol in a diesel Jaguar rental car. She was very irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, and that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe position and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could get to her quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home relaxed and much less worried. Yet another job in Camden well done in my opinion!

Services Our Company Offers:

Here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do in case you have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pulled into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, leading to devastating and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Call us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel is going to produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases quite simply.

Remember however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Camden to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in New Cross Gate (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Camden Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up the car. They can also handle any of the most common problems that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
