It was before ten pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and me were sitting there discussing the rugby, waiting for the seventh fuel drain to come in. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Gipsy Hill and put petrol in her diesel SEAT rental. She was fairly affected apparently, stating "I can not believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, since it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to reach the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away calm and less anxious. A job in Lambeth well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination
All over Lambeth we are noticing a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not knowing how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the automobile.
Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And definitely take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel can easily bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances pretty swiftly.
Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel container at the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Lambeth to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we are able to drain it.
Re-Fueling Service
Out of fuel in Gipsy Hill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Lambeth Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to handle the standard troubles which can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

We fairly recently had a call from a motorist who put the incorrect fuel in his Jaguar in Gipsy Hill. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "After adding petrol in my diesel car I didn't discover the dilemma before I broke down. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and got it working again. I was pleased by both your call-out time and your value for money". As you can imagine we arrived rapidly and flushed the engine after draining the petrol from the diesel tank.
