It was around 10 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were resting there talking about the weekend's sports rankings, waiting for the 6th call for the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Effingham and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda rental. She was pretty troubled apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I've messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that these things regrettably often happen. She was able to move the car into a safe position and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from us, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off calm and a lot less concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Surrey well done in my opinion!

Assisting you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do in case you have put Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made from a mixture of ionized water and urea.Adblue is actually devastating to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pushed into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, causing serious and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you will most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel is going to bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases very expediently.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Surrey for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Effingham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will deal with any of the most common troubles that might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
