It was before seven pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ray and I were sitting there talking over the sports results, waiting for the seventh call to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Weybourne and filled petrol in a diesel Renault lease car by mistake. She was rather affected it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe spot and, since it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to reach her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive away calm and not so stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Surrey done well in my mind!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Below are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Surrey we are noticing more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from people being unsure of the right way to work with it (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you end up in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances rather simply.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container in the rear of your premises containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Surrey for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a garage, providing we can access it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Weybourne (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill the car. They can also deal with the most common problems that can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Weybourne - Weybourne Wrong Fuel in Car

A gentleman had conked out just off a road in Weybourne. His Mitsubishi engine had ceased working and he'd no clue what was the problem until eventually he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can not believe that I didn't detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten very little sleep the night before and that could have been the reason.
