Vehicle Misfuel New Addington - New Addington Fuel Rescue

What a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on my way to help an older lovely lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen in New Addington. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up in a country lane on route to visit her grandchildren. I got the location punched straight into the Satnav and arrived within an hour. I turned up at the car and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was working she said, "I have been getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I had only just got it a short while back because my old car, which I'd had for in excess of 30 years, inevitably died". I finished the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a delightful Croydon lady!

Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Offer:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Croydon we have found a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Call us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases pretty quickly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we can access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Croydon to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even several containers in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in New Addington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Croydon Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They will deal with the usual issues which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue New Addington - New Addington Wrong Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a wonderful afternoon fishing during my day off and was feeling cheerful with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a new family who were holidaying in New Addington. They'd broken down after filling diesel into their Lexus, and were approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the lady telling her partner off for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you even be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this problem takes place all the time in Croydon and that it is nothing at all to worry about, nonetheless he all the same got his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I shouted good bye and thought about what my missus would say to me if ever I made the same blunder... I would personally never ever live it down!
