If you've mistakenly put the wrong fuel in your car and right now require the wrong fuel removed you are likely trawling the net on the lookout for a quick, trustworthy, qualified and budget-friendly fuel drain company in Rose Hill or Surrey. We are the specialists for your needs!

It was just after seven pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing there talking over the recent rugby results, at the ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. In due time we had a call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Rose Hill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia rental car. The poor thing was rather agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that such things sadly happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we could find her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got very drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off satisfied and much less apprehensive. A job in Surrey well done in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Surrey we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people not being aware of the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the car.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out right away. And definitely don't crank the engine - not even to move it from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is going to cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations very expediently.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir in the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Surrey for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Rose Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up the car. They can also deal with the usual problems which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

A person phoned us from Rose Hill saying he stupidly piped unleaded in his diesel Vauxhall. "What a fool! How could I put the wrong fuel in my beautiful diesel car!" It took our fuel drainer approximately 50 minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. He meticulously cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put fresh fuel in the car. The customer was completely satisfied and it hadn't cost him dealer rates to have the job professionally done.
