Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Surrey we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to people not understanding how to work with it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely don't turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel will likely cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations pretty easily.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel container at the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Surrey for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Thorpe (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up the car. They will be able to handle the usual troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Thorpe - Thorpe Fuel Drain

A while back a gentleman called us soon after his BMW ground to a halt on a street in Thorpe. He had by accident put petrol in his diesel vehicle and got to the street before having to halt. It was still early in the day and our technical engineer, who resides close by, got to him in about a quarter hour. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back in the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 3 a.m., I appreciate it."
