Services We Deliver:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

In Surrey we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Contact us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can take care of all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases rather expediently.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Surrey for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Holmwood Corner (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with any of the most common issues which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Holmwood Corner - Holmwood Corner Fuel Drain

A person phoned us from his home on a street in Holmwood Corner. He explained, "My car (a Mitsubishi) is not starting and is making awful noises when I turn the key." He confessed that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then reckoned he would remedy the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once again with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he'd be certain to inform people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it drained immediately.
