Our Areas of Expertise:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Surrey we have noticed progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at once. And certainly be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases quite expediently.

Take note however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car parking spot we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container placed in the back of the garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Surrey to take care of removing 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. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Oxted (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your car. They will be able to fix any of the usual troubles that may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Oxted - Oxted Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a terrific afternoon cycling on my day off and felt contented the next morning as I headed out to aid a new couple on holiday in Oxted. They had broken down after inserting diesel in their Smart, and were about an hour away. I got there at their car and smiled while I heard to the woman berating her man for being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this problem takes place frequently in Surrey and that it is nothing at all to stress about, and yet he still got his ear bent by his better half. Poor lad. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed goodbye and wondered what her indoors would tell me if I made the exact same blunder... I would personally never hear the end of it!
