It was about 5 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a rainless evening, it had not given up on raining! James and I were resting discussing the weekend's sports rankings, prepared for the 6th fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Eastbury and filled petrol in a diesel BMW rental. The poor lady was rather irritated apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, since it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could arrive at the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away contented and not so anxious. Another fuel drain in Harrow well done in my opinion!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Harrow we have identified a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to people not knowing the way to to make use of (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases pretty easily.

Take note that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking spot we can access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying at the back of your premises containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Harrow to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Eastbury (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Harrow Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will take care of any of the standard troubles that could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Eastbury - Eastbury Fuel Removal

A man called us from his residence on a street in Eastbury. He said, "My car (a Lexus) is not starting up and is creating terrible noises when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel car but then imagined he would solve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, performed the drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He told us after that he'd be certain to advise people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.
