Fuel Drain Thamesmead - Thamesmead Wrong Fuel
What a quality night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Tuesday and I was on the way to assist an older woman who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mitsubishi in Thamesmead. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and broken down in a backwater lane along the way to see her family. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was with her within an hour or so. I reached the location and drained the contaminated fuel in the car car. Whilst I was working she said to me, "I am becoming rather absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had only bought it a week back after my other car, which I had owned for more than 30 years, finally died". I got the drain completed and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a lovely Greenwich lady!

Our Fields of Expertise:
Listed below are our top services we deliver to our clients.
AdBlue In Diesel
All over Greenwich we are discovering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.
Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily attend to different types of AdBlue contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol may lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases rather simply.
Take note that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Greenwich to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, providing we can get to it, we are able to drain it.
Out of Fuel Support
Run out of fuel in Thamesmead (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Greenwich Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your automobile. They will fix any of the usual troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Thamesmead - Thamesmead Fuel Drain
I had appreciated a wonderful day hiking during my off day and felt contented the following day as I set off to aid a young family who were holidaying in Thamesmead. They had stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their Suzuki, and the car was around half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked while I heard to the gal telling her husband off for turning out to be so daft. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this problem comes to pass regularly in Greenwich and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, even so he all the same got an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate boy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved goodbye and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if I did the same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!

"It was unbelievable how rapid you people were in getting a fuel drainer out to assist me when I put the wrong fuel in my. Thanks". Of course we arrived on the scene rapidly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the unleaded from the diesel tank.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Thamesmead - Thamesmead Petrol in Diesel
The other day a motorist called us because his Nissan cut out on a street in Thamesmead. He had accidentally put petrol in the diesel car and drove as far as the street before being forced to pull over. It was early in the morning and our technician, who resides locally, got to him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back in to the car. "Sincere kudos to you for your fast response, particularly at 2 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
