It was about seven pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated discussing the weekend's football, ready for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Oxted and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Porsche hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was quite agitated apparently, stating "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure position and, since it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we could get to her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and less anxious. A job in Surrey well done in my books!

Services We Provide:

We can assist you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

Wrong fuel added in the tank - Petrol fuel in a diesel engine causes a lot of trouble to your engine. It may begin to cough and stall. The exhaust of your vehicle will begin to emit a lot of smoke and starting the engine is truly a difficult task, particularly if the engine has already cooled down. Reversing the incorrect fuel, diesel in a petrol tank, the signs you will notice are similar. Either way, we will repair it for you.

Damaging the engine with water - Water contamination typically requires the fuel system to be drained. It makes the engine to rev up, jolt or splutter when you accelerate, and can ultimately rust your fuel system. This typically happens to boats ultimately because of the jerry cans used in filling the tanks which were not totally checked for water left. The great thing is we are capable it emptying it too and we can help you instantly replace the filter as required.

AdBlue immediately added to your tank - Mistakenly adding AdBlue to your tank can contaminate your fuel system. People usually don?t have a concrete idea of what AdBlue is for. It?s not a fuel additive. It?s a liquid that helps lessen the unfavorable effect on our environment simply by lessening the emissions in the car?s exhaust. It should be added via a separate tank, not directly to the fuel tank. In the event you fall victim to this contamination, let?s us do the flushing job.

Red diesel contamination - Another wrong fuel that ends up in the wrong place at the wrong time is red diesel. It enters your vehicle by your own mistake or of a gas stop worker isn't too expert in the various kinds of diesel. If that takes place, your car will go through the same symptoms like it would with diesel petrol mix up. It will run low and coughs like a middle-aged lifelong smoker. But do not fret. Our team knows how to handle red diesel contamination.

Old Fuel - As time passes by and your vehicle is idle for a while, the quality of your fuel degrades. This occurs if the car is not driven and has been on standby for a long period of time and the fuel has been in the tank unused. The engine may start and run but there will be problems you'll notice. Emptying out the old fuel is a service we are more than capable of doing.

Wrong Fuel Oxted - Oxted Fuel Removal

I appreciated a wonderful afternoon golfing during the weekend and felt pleased the following morning as I was en route to help a young family on holiday in Oxted. They had broken down after inserting diesel in their Kia, and they were approximately an hour away. I showed up at their car and smiled as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for being so silly. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this problem happens everyday in Surrey and that it's nothing to worry about, and yet he yet still got an earful by his better half. Unfortunate boy. Anyways, I drained out the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the correct fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what my missus would tell me if ever I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
