This is what we do best.
AdBlue Contamination
All around Surrey we have identified progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to drivers not being aware of how to use it (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.
Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.
In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And most definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In case you have started the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can easily contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations fairly expediently.
Take note however that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel tank placed at the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Surrey for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can drain it.

Run out of fuel in Thorpe Lea (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of any of the normal troubles which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Doctor Thorpe Lea - Thorpe Lea Wrong Fuel Drain
I had appreciated a perfect evening cycling during my holiday and was feeling cheerful with myself the next working day as I was on the way to help a new couple who were holidaying in Thorpe Lea. They conked out after inserting diesel in their Toyota, and the car was about half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smiled to myself as I heard to the woman telling her husband off for being so daft. "Just how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass on a regular basis in Surrey and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, and yet he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate boy. Anyhow, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the very same blunder... I'd never live it down!

A customer who had unluckily put the wrong fuel in his diesel Volkswagen contacted us for assistance at the Texaco petrol filling station in Thorpe Lea. He decided to fill up before continuing on to the nearby holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol instead of diesel which unfortunately wasn't a great beginning to our getaway." It was no hassle by any means for our technician to go along and carry out the fuel drain.
