It was close to 7 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and me were seated there going over the weekend's rugby results, at the ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Berrylands and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Suzuki rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was fairly distressed apparently, telling me "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe space and, because it was just a few miles off from our van, we could reach the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off relaxed and less worried. A misfuel correction in Kingston upon Thames done well in my opinion!

Helping you get back on the road is our number 1 goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? Adblue is actually harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with Adblue in your tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will be injected into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel will likely contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations fairly expediently.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank in the back of your premises with old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Kingston upon Thames to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Berrylands (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Kingston upon Thames Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They are also able to fix any of the standard problems which might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
