It was about 10 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were resting there talking over the recent golf, prepared for the sixth call of the day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Cheam and put petrol in a diesel Citroen rental car by mistake. The poor thing was rather irritated it seemed, saying "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing as it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could get to the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living at. Although we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less concerned. One more fuel drain in Croydon done well in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it if you?ve put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will be injected into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to address in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations rather quickly.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container placed at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Croydon to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Cheam (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and refill the car. They are also able to take care of the normal problems which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Cheam - Cheam Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer contacted us from his home on a street in Cheam. He pronounced, "My car (a Dacia) is not starting up and is generating terrible sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He told us he'd be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.
