Listed here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Croydon we are encountering progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances very swiftly.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank in the rear of the garden with old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Croydon to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Old Coulsdon (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Croydon Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the standard problems which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.


Fuel Rescue Old Coulsdon - Old Coulsdon Vehicle Misfuel

I had a perfect day fishing during my holiday and felt cheerful the next working day as I headed out to assist a young family holidaying in Old Coulsdon. They'd conked out after filling petrol in their Volkswagen, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked while I heard to the woman telling her man off for actually being so silly. "Just how could you even manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this situation comes to pass frequently in Croydon and that it is nothing at all to fret about, however he still had an earful by his missus. Poor boy. Anyways, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted good bye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the same error... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

No matter whether you are in a state of the art vehicle or an outdated design, we have the gear and practical experience to repair the problem right there. We clean out all the incorrect fuel, resolve any complications triggered from the misfueling, and get you running.

She had put petrol in her diesel Mitsubishi and, like countless before her, imagined that she would be able to just fill the car with diesel and it'd be alright. The vehicle was chugging and then it died when she came to the the front of her work.

He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel car but then reckoned he would fix the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained right away.
