It was about ten pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! James and I were relaxing commenting on the rugby results, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Finally we got a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Twickenham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi rental car. The unfortunate thing was fairly affected by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a protected space and, seeing as it was just a few miles off from where we were, we were able to reach the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the motel she was living at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home relaxed and less stressed. Yet another job in Richmond upon Thames well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Richmond upon Thames we are noticing an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely never start up the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you may probably need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel will often bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Be aware that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying in the rear of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Richmond upon Thames to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Wrong Fuel Assist Twickenham - Twickenham Wrong Fuel Doctor

A woman working in Twickenham contacted us shortly after she tried to get her misfueled car to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia and, like many prior to her, assumed that she could simply fill up the tank with diesel and it would run okay. The vehicle was coughing and then it cut out when she reached the entrance of her office. We quickly started on the fuel drain following her call and had it repaired inside one hour while she was working. She came outside soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely delighted you fixed my vehicle."
