Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue In Diesel

In Surrey we have discovered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly be careful not to start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the car you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel may result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations pretty simply.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in Surrey for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a garage, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Shipley Bridge (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to refill the car.

Fuel Drain Shipley Bridge - Shipley Bridge Vehicle Misfuel

A customer had stopped just off a road in Shipley Bridge. His Mitsubishi car had ceased operating and he had no idea what was wrong until he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten absolutely no sleep the day before and that must have been the key reason why.
