It was about eight pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing there talking over the tennis results, waiting for the 6th call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling station in Russell Hill and filled petrol in a diesel Toyota rental car. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was just a few miles away from us, we could find the woman right away. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home calm and much less worried. Another fuel drain in Croydon well done in my mind!

Provided Services: Our Specialties:

Listed below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Croydon we have found progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not understanding the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Should you discover youself to be in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the technical expertise and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank may well trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases rather swiftly.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Croydon to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.
