It was around 7 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were relaxing going over the recent football, prepared for the 6th job that day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Surbiton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, also that these things regrettably often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off satisfied and not so stressed. Another misfuel correction in Kingston upon Thames done well in my mind!

Our Fields of Expertise:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in case you have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be dragged into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, causing devastating and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most certainly be careful not to crank the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases fairly quickly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Kingston upon Thames for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Surbiton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Kingston upon Thames Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They can also take care of the usual issues which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Surbiton - Surbiton Fuel Rescue

A guy had broken down just off a street in Surbiton. His Ford engine had stopped working and he had no clue what was faulty until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I can't believe that I didn't realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten virtually no sleep the day before and that could have been why.
