Services We Deliver:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Surrey we have seen progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can easily produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations very easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying in the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Surrey to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Redhill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with any of the typical problems which can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Redhill, Surrey

Wrong Fuel Redhill - Redhill Petrol in Diesel

I appreciated a great evening golfing during the weekend and was feeling contented with myself the following morning as I headed out to aid a young family vacationing in Redhill. They had stopped after inserting petrol in their Chevrolet, and were close to half an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed while I heard to the gal telling her husband off for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this occurs frequently in Surrey and that it's truly absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he all the same had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor chap. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted good-bye and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the exact same mistake... I'd never live it down!
