It was about 7 pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing going over the weekend's football results, prepared for the seventh fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in South Hampstead and filled petrol in her diesel Citroen rental by mistake. She was fairly distressed it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to move the car to a secure spot and, since it was just a few miles away from us, we were able to find the lady right away. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home relaxed and less concerned. Another job in Camden well done in my opinion!

Our Services:

Listed below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In Camden we have identified an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Should you end up in this predicament don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical skills and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel can certainly trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank in the rear of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Camden for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a shed, providing we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in South Hampstead (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Camden Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the usual issues which could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue South Hampstead - South Hampstead Wrong Fuel Doctor

A guy had stopped just near a road in South Hampstead. His BMW engine had stopped operating and he'd no idea what was faulty until eventually he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I can't believe that I did not comprehend that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten no rest the evening before and that could have been the key reason why.
