Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Kingston upon Thames we have found increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not understanding the way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not turn over the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to handle in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is going to trigger idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances very simply.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Kingston upon Thames to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Tolworth (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Kingston upon Thames Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix the most common problems that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Tolworth - Tolworth Wrong Fuel

A week ago a driver called us soon after his Ford cut out in the middle of a street in Tolworth. He had inadvertently put petrol in the diesel motor and was only able to get as far as the street before having to pull up. It was actually early in the morning and our technician, who resides locally, reached him in approximately 10 minutes. We were able to get rid of the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Many thanks to you for your prompt response, especially at 6 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
