It was just after 7 pm on a Tuesday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and me were seated commenting on the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain that day to come in. Eventually we had the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Old Coulsdon and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Suzuki lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was very distressed apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a protected area and, since it was just a short distance from us, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off contented and less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Croydon done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel
In Croydon we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from motorists being unsure of how to use it (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Any time you end up in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the specialised knowledge and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances fairly expediently.
Be aware that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Croydon to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.
Re-Fueling Support
Run out of fuel in Old Coulsdon (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Croydon Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your car. They will deal with the usual issues that could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
Petrol in Diesel Old Coulsdon - Old Coulsdon Petrol in Diesel
A couple weeks ago a driver phoned us after his Mazda died in the middle of a street in Old Coulsdon. He had by mistake put the wrong fuel in the diesel motor and drove to the road before having to give up. It was in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who stays nearby, got to him in about a quarter hour. We managed to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again into the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your immediate response, particularly at 6 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
Recent Fuel Drains in Old Coulsdon
Reports from our Old Coulsdon mechanics:
We did a wrong fuel removal job on the drive of a spectacular house in Old Coulsdon recently. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to nearly arrive at home when my car stopped." Our fuel drainer went out, regardless that it was rather late at night, and completed a full fuel drain and purge on the SEAT to everyone's satisfaction.
Wrong Fuel Drain Old Coulsdon - Old Coulsdon Wrong Fuel Assist
This was what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly 3 in the morning and noone was around. It was rather quiet until now, and Mark and I were loafing around looking through some old articles. This was a rare tranquil moment in Croydon. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the instant the phone rang it made me jump! The person explained: "I have just completed my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my Audi by mistake". I told him to inform us where exactly he was and we set off, getting to him in Old Coulsdon no more than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the engine. He thanked us for coming out so fast. As we were returning to the office we noticed two ladies on the side of the road who seemed to have a puncture. As a result we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.
Wrong Fuel Old Coulsdon - Old Coulsdon Fuel Rescue
A man called us from Old Coulsdon to say he piped petrol into his diesel Suzuki. "I can't believe it! How could I put unleaded in my lovely diesel car!" It only took the fuel drainer about fifty minutes to fully drain the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. He completely flushed the fuel system and then put fresh fuel in the car. The customer was happy and it didn't cost him car dealership rates to have the job professionally performed.
