It was after five pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not ceased pouring! Ray and me were seated there going over the recent rugby, waiting for the seventh fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Vale of Health and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Kia lease car in error. She was fairly troubled apparently, crying "I can not believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe space and, seeing that it was only a few miles away from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living at. Although we got very wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off contented and not so apprehensive. A fuel drain in Camden well done in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Camden we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it right away. And most certainly don't start up the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel may lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying in the rear of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Camden for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Vale of Health (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Camden Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They are also able to fix the standard troubles which can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Vale of Health - Vale of Health Wrong Fuel

I'd had a perfect evening cycling on my afternoon off and felt pleased with myself the next working day as I set off to help a young family who were holidaying in Vale of Health. They broken down after adding petrol into their Peugeot, and were around an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this situation takes place on daily basis in Camden and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be concerned about, and yet he still had his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the proper fuel. While they drove off I waved bon voyage and considered what her indoors would do to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!
