Our Areas of Competency :

We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Croydon we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people not knowing the right way to to make use of (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And most certainly do not switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can potentially trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances very swiftly.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking spot we can access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir in the rear of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Croydon to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Thornton Heath (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your car. They can also deal with the most common troubles which may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Underneath are responses and cases of wrong fuel removal we have carried out in Thornton Heath:

I am not very interested in carrying out work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had just come away from home filled with a wonderful roast cooked for us by the wife, and I was off to sort out a fellow because he put the incorrect fuel in his Lexus. He was located in Thornton Heath therefore I arrived on scene rapidly. As I arrived behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my attention on other stuff and failed to perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I caused harm by running it?" I explained that generally there shouldn't be any harm and also I would personally get the wrong fuel drained quickly. Obviously I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus one more happy customer had the ability to carry on with their trip without any subsequent difficulty. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what can make carrying out work on weekends in Croydon just that tiny bit less painful to me!

The engine was chugging and then it stopped when she got to the entrance of her office. We promptly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed within one hour whilst she was working. She came out afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm really delighted you sorted my car."
