Our Areas of Competency :

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Surrey we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not knowing the right way to use it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And most definitely never turn over the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases fairly expediently.

Take note though that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Surrey to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in West Molesey (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill the car. They are also able to take care of any of the common problems which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
