Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Greenwich we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not understanding the way to work with it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most definitely never turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may well produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car parking bay we can gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank lying in the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and business properties in Greenwich for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Charlton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Greenwich Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix any of the common troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Charlton - Charlton Wrong Fuel in Car

I enjoyed a terrific day fishing on my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the following morning as I was en route to aid a young family away in Charlton. They had stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their Mitsubishi, and were around an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smiled while I listened to the lady telling her partner off for being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this goes on regularly in Greenwich and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he all the same got an ear bashing. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyhow, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and thought about what my missus would tell me if I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
