Services Our Company Offers:
Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.
AdBlue In Diesel
In Surrey we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by drivers not being aware of how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the car.
Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
Give us a call in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel may well produce idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases fairly expediently.
Take note though that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel tank laying at the rear of the garden with old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in Surrey for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, providing we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.
Re-Fueling Support
Out of fuel in Ashtead (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) to refill the car. They can also deal with any of the standard issues that may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Drain Ashtead - Ashtead Vehicle Misfuel
A customer called us from his residence on a close in Ashtead. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Ford) is not running and is generating dreadful noises when I flip the key." He said that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then imagined he would remedy the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, carried out the drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He said he'd be certain to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
All of our technicians are experienced on the latest cars and their fuel systems. We perform over 6 thousand fuel drains on a yearly basis in the United Kingdom (yes, there are that many people who do the same thing - you are definitely not on your own). Our phone lines are open 24 hours a day and every day of the week. Our technicians are available at any time when you require them.

Various reviews:
No one likes being stranded in a vehicle with the improper fuel on the street. Our most recent customer who put petrol in his diesel car (Fiat) in Ashtead encountered exactly that type of crisis: "Obviously I incorrectly filled my car with the wrong fuel recently. I was so stressed about it that I was actually in tears. And yet I shouldn't have concerned myself as you were marvelous in draining and cleaning my car."
Wrong Fuel Drain Ashtead - Ashtead Wrong Fuel Assist
It truly was the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It was pretty dead thus far, and me and Paul were sitting around looking through several old magazines. That was a rare tranquil hour in Surrey. It was indeed so calm that the instant the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The customer on the other end stated: "I concluded my overnight shift and stupidly poured petrol in my Ford by mistake". We asked him to let us know just where he was and we set off, arriving in Ashtead not as much as an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car. He thanked us for showing up so promptly. While we were returning to base we noticed two ladies at the edge of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. As a result we pulled over and helped them change it, much to their delight.
Vehicle Misfuel Ashtead - Ashtead Wrong Fuel Assist
I had a wonderful afternoon cycling on my off day and felt pleased with myself the following working day as I set off to aid a new family who were holidaying in Ashtead. They had stopped after adding diesel in their Vauxhall, and were approximately half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smiled while I listened to the lady telling off her man for being so silly. "Precisely how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs all the time in Surrey and that it's in reality nothing at all to get worried about, but he still had his ear bent. Poor chap. Anyhow, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted so long and considered what her indoors would ask me if I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!
