Our Areas of Expertise :

Below are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Southwark we have encountered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not understanding the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And absolutely never start the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel may result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances rather easily.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Southwark for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Nunhead (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Southwark Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your car. They will handle the standard troubles that may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Nunhead - Nunhead Fuel Removal

I had enjoyed a perfect day cycling on my off day and felt pleased with myself the next working day as I set out to assist a new couple away in Nunhead. They conked out after putting diesel in their Dacia, and the car was roughly half an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you actually be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this takes place continuously in Southwark and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be anxious about, however he yet still got an earful. Poor chap. Anyhow, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove away I shouted goodbye and pondered on what my wife would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
