Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Beckenham

Petrol in your diesel car in Beckenham? You've come to the right place. We are here to assist you in this emergency and get you going once again with our expert fuel drain service.

It was before seven pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were seated talking about the footy results, prepared for the 8th job of the day to come in. Inevitably we got a call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Beckenham and put petrol in her diesel Volkswagen rental in error. The unfortunate lady was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I can not believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a protected space and, as it was only a few miles away from us, we could reach the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could get back to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Bromley well done in my mind!

Services Our Company Offers:

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any related issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do if you have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? It tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, triggering disastrous and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And certainly don't start up the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you have started the car you may very likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to take care of in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel can result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container placed at the back of the garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Bromley to take care of draining and disposing of 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 an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Beckenham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Bromley Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They can also deal with the typical troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Beckenham - Beckenham Fuel Drain

A man had stopped off a street in Beckenham. His SEAT car had stopped functioning and he'd no clue what was the problem until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can not believe that I did not know that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten no sleep the night before and that must have been the reason.
