It was after 10 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not stopped raining! James and me were seated discussing the weekend's rugby, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Gallows Corner and put petrol in a diesel Toyota rental. She was somewhat agitated apparently, saying "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things sadly do happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe position and, since it was only a few minutes off from our van, we were able to get to the woman swiftly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home satisfied and a lot less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Havering done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Havering we have encountered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people not understanding the right way to use it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously take care not to start the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to handle in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases very quickly.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container laying in the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Havering to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Gallows Corner (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Havering Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your car. They will be able to handle the normal troubles that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Gallows Corner - Gallows Corner Petrol in Diesel

Last monday a customer called us when his MG stopped working in the middle of a road in Gallows Corner. He had accidentally put the wrong fuel in the diesel car and drove so far as the street before needing to stop. It was really early in the day and our fuel drainer, who resides close by, got to him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, particularly at 1 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
