This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Croydon we have found increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And absolutely do not start the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations fairly quickly.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting in the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Croydon to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in South Norwood (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Croydon Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They can also handle any of the typical problems that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel South Norwood - South Norwood Wrong Fuel in Car

This was certainly an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and Ray and I were loafing around looking at several old newspapers. It was a rare calm time in Croydon. It was in fact that relaxing that the moment the telephone finally rang it made me start! The person said: "I just ended my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel Ford by mistake". We told him to inform us just where he was located and we set off, ending up in South Norwood an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he said thanks for showing up so rapidly. While we were coming back to the depot we spotted two ladies on the side of the road who appeared to have a puncture. So we got out to help them change it, much to their elation.

Petrol in Diesel South Norwood - South Norwood Wrong Fuel

I'd had a wonderful afternoon fishing on my afternoon off and was feeling contented the following morning as I headed out to help a young family on holiday in South Norwood. They had stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their Vauxhall, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the wife telling her husband off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place quite frequently in Croydon and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. Watching while they drove away I shouted so long and wondered what my wife would ask me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
