It was about eight pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ray and I were relaxing commenting on the football, ready for the 6th job of the day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Honor Oak and put petrol in a diesel BMW hire car by mistake. The poor thing was fairly irritated apparently, stating "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to worry, and that such things happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a secure spot and, because it was no more than a few miles from us, we were able to find her right away. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living at.

Our Areas of Specialties: Services We Provide:

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any connected problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Lewisham we have noticed increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people being unsure of how to work with it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel may well bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations quite quickly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking bay we will be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel.

Wrong Fuel in Car Honor Oak - Honor Oak Wrong Fuel

I had a fantastic afternoon golfing on my holiday and felt pleased the next day as I set out to aid a new family who were on holiday in Honor Oak. They stopped after adding the wrong fuel in their Renault, and the car was around an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the girl telling her hubby off for being so daft. "How could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this goes on everyday in Lewisham and that it is nothing to fret about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had an earful by his missus. I felt sorry for the boy. In any case, I drained all of the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. As they drove away I mouthed good bye and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!
