Fuel Removal Selhurst - Selhurst Wrong Fuel Drain
What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Saturday and I was on the way to assist an older lady who had put petrol in her diesel Ford in Selhurst. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down along a rural lane on the way to visit her godchildren. I got the location punched into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I'd just purchased it several days back when my former one, which I had used for over 25 years, inevitably died on me". I got the job completed and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. Such a delightful Croydon lady!

Services We Give:
Below are our top services we offer to our customers.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All over Croydon we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers being unsure of how to work with it (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the automobile.
So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.
If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases pretty quickly.
Be aware that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one is going to be totally wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Got a fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Croydon to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Out of fuel in Selhurst (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your car. They are also able to fix any of the most common troubles which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Selhurst - Selhurst Wrong Fuel
I had a terrific evening cycling during the weekend and was feeling pleased the next morning as I set out to aid a young couple away in Selhurst. They broken down after inserting the wrong fuel into their Land Rover, and were about an hour away. I got there at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the lady chastising her man for actually being so stupid. "How could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this problem occurs everyday in Croydon and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, however he all the same had an ear bashing. Unfortunate boy. In any case, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and considered what her indoors would tell me if I made the same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

Common wrong fuel drain testimonies in Selhurst:
We performed a wrong fuel removal job outside a beautiful residential home in Selhurst a few weeks ago.

A man phoned us from his Peugeot after he had ground to a halt on the bustling road. "I accidently put unleaded in my diesel car and I shortly learned all about it a few miles down the road!" Happily we were in a position to have an technician out to him in a reasonably short time, considering the fact it was rush-hour, and he was soon back behind the wheel.
