Fuel Rescue Upper Shirley - Upper Shirley Wrong Fuel Assist

I'd had a terrific day hiking during my holiday and was feeling pleased the following morning as I set out to help a new couple who were away in Upper Shirley. They had pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel into their Chevrolet, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and laughed as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass continuously in Croydon and that it's actually nothing at all to worry about, and yet he yet still got an earful. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted bon voyage and considered what my wife would do to me in the event that I made the same mistake... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

Offered Services:

We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Croydon we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases quite simply.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Croydon to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill the car.
