Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed if you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely never start the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases fairly easily.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Kingston upon Thames to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, if we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.

We will get out to refill the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home.

Wrong Fuel Drain Surbiton - Surbiton Petrol in Diesel

I had a perfect afternoon golfing on my holiday and was feeling cheerful the following day as I was on the way to help a young family away in Surbiton. They'd broken down after adding diesel into their Honda, and were about an hour's drive away. I arrived at their car and smiled as I heard to the girl berating her husband for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this situation comes to pass frequently in Kingston upon Thames and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky boy. In any case, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some proper fuel. Watching while they drove away I mouthed farewell and considered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!
