It was after 10 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated there discussing the recent golf rankings, at the ready for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso filling station in Knowle Green and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Hyundai rental. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe space and, as it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we could reach her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less stressed. Yet another job in Surrey done well in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

AdBlue Contamination
How to proceed if you may have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly harm to your car's fuel system.
Any time you get in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the technical competence and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank is going to produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations fairly easily.
Remember however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be wholly wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the back of your premises with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Surrey to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

A customer from Knowle Green with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Ford had filled her vehicle with £30 of petrol at the Texaco station. She phoned us crying and extremely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what would happen to her car because of it.
