Our Areas of Competence :

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

In Surrey we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most definitely don't crank the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the car you may probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel can contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Surrey for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Birtley Green (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill your car. They will handle any of the typical problems which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
