We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All around Croydon we have discovered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not being aware of how to work with it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the vehicle.
Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never start up the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel may cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases fairly easily.
Take note that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel tank laying in the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Croydon to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, providing we can reach it, we can empty it for you.
Out of Fuel Services
Out of fuel in Croydon (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They will fix the usual issues that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Assist Croydon - Croydon Fuel Rescue
A person contacted us from his place on a street in Croydon. He said, "My vehicle (a Kia) is not starting up and is making terrible noises when I turn the key." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us after that he would be sure to inform people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it drained right away.

No one likes being stranded in a car with the improper fuel in the middle of the road. We had a customer who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (MG) in Croydon had exactly that type of crisis: "You may already know that I wrongly filled my petrol car with diesel like a perfect fool. I was so worried about my error that I was besides myself. And yet I shouldn't have worried seeing as you were terrific in dealing with the problem."
Fuel Drain Croydon - Croydon Fuel Removal
A young lady from Croydon with her little ones in her diesel MG had put £20 of petrol at the Sainsburys station. She phoned us weeping and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle . We told her that all should be okay and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the youngsters in the back."
