It was around 8 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were sitting there talking over the rugby rankings, waiting around for the sixth telephone call to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Fairmile and put petrol in a diesel Nissan lease car by mistake. She was fairly agitated it seemed, crying "I can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from our van, we could get to the customer right away. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the motel she was living at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off relaxed and less apprehensive. Another job in Surrey done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Specialties: Services We Offer:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Surrey we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely do not start up the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. If you did start the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations very simply.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial premises in Surrey for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Fairmile (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up the car. They can also fix any of the normal problems which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Fairmile - Fairmile Vehicle Misfuel

A customer had broken down near a road in Fairmile. His Vauxhall engine had ceased running and he had no clue what was the problem until eventually he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I cannot believe that I did not comprehend that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten absolutely no sleep the day before and that could have been why.
