Services We Offer:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Surrey we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly be careful not to start the car - not even to move it into a parking bay. In cases where you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel will likely produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations very simply.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of your premises full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Surrey to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Stanners Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your automobile. They can also deal with any of the normal problems which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Stanners Hill - Stanners Hill Fuel Drain

A guy had stopped just off a street in Stanners Hill. His Suzuki engine had ceased functioning and he'd no clue what was awry until he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can't believe that I did not comprehend that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the day before and that could have been the reason.
