Our Areas of Competency :

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Croydon we have seen progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from people not understanding the right way to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you end up in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical skills and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel may trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances rather expediently.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank at the rear of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business premises in Croydon to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in New Addington (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of any of the typical troubles which can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel New Addington - New Addington Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a fantastic evening cycling on the weekend and felt satisfied the next working day as I set off to help a young couple away in New Addington. They had broken down after putting petrol in their Audi, and they were close to half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked as I heard to the girl telling her partner off for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to explain that this happens everyday in Croydon and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he still got an ear bashing by his better half. Unlucky chap. In any case, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove off I mouthed bon voyage and considered what my missus would say to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

With 100's of years of shared contaminated fuel removal knowledge you couldn't be in safer hands. Our agents have seen the lot and done a great deal. They are properly trained on the most recent automobiles and possess all applicable certificates. The company is entirely V.A.T. registered and insured so you realize we are no amateur or "fly-by-night" business.


Recent Fuel Drains in New Addington

Several of the more ordinary stories we see from our engineers in New Addington:

We carried out a wrong fuel retrieval job near a spectacular residence in New Addington a few weeks ago. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to virtually get home when my car cut out." Our specialist went out, even though it was quite late at night, and did a standard fuel drain and purge on the Audi .

Fuel Removal New Addington - New Addington Fuel Drain

A customer from New Addington with a full car of children in her diesel MG had filled her vehicle with £30 of petrol at the Shell service station. She phoned us weeping and genuinely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what would happen to her car because of it. We assured her that all would be ok and that she would be in action very quickly. When we got there she was visible upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the kids on board."

Vehicle Misfuel New Addington - New Addington Fuel Removal

A gentleman phoned us from New Addington to say he unfortunately piped unleaded into his diesel Citroen. "Shocking! I can't believe I put petrol in my nice diesel car!" It only took our technician around fifty minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. He meticulously cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put clean diesel in the vehicle. The customer was delighted and it didn't cost him dealer rates to get the task properly completed.
