Wrong Fuel in Car Riddlesdown - Riddlesdown Vehicle Misfuel
What a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a sunny Sunday and we were off to assist an old sweetheart after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Toyota in Riddlesdown. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded in a country road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I punched her location into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour. I arrived at the location and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she told me, "I am getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only purchased it a short while back when my old one, which I had used for more than 25 years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain done and she offered me a toffee and said thanks. Such a pleasant Croydon woman!

Wrong Fuel Riddlesdown - Riddlesdown Wrong Fuel Drain
I had appreciated a fantastic evening cycling during my holiday and felt satisfied the following day as I was on the way to aid a new family away in Riddlesdown. They pulled over after filling petrol in their Porsche, and they were approximately an hour away. I showed up at their location and laughed as I heard to the woman telling off her man for being so daft. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this situation goes on on daily basis in Croydon and that it's nothing at all to fret about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I drained all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected issues.
AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Croydon we are noticing progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people not being totally sure the way to use it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.
Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.
Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations very simply.
Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your premises with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Croydon for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.
