It was after eight pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and me were relaxing commenting on the weekend's rugby results, ready for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Woodcote and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Nissan lease car by mistake. The poor lady was quite irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less anxious. A misfuel correction in Croydon well done in my mind!

Services We Provide:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do if you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely devastating to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, causing catastrophic and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can potentially bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations fairly expediently.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container sitting in the back of your premises containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Croydon to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of fuel in Woodcote (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and fill up your automobile.
