Below are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Southwark we are discovering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not understanding the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And most certainly do not turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations pretty simply.

You should know however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container in the rear of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Southwark to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even several drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Friday Hill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Southwark Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your automobile. They can also fix the typical problems which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Friday Hill, Southwark

Wrong Fuel in Car Friday Hill - Friday Hill Wrong Fuel

I'd had a perfect afternoon golfing during my holiday and was feeling contented the next day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were holidaying in Friday Hill. They had pulled over after putting diesel into their Mazda, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their car and smirked as I heard to the woman chastising her husband for being so confused. "How could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this takes place frequently in Southwark and that it's truly absolutely nothing to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unfortunate boy. Anyway, I drained out all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted farewell and wondered what my missus would tell me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!
