Services We Offer:

Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Croydon we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly never start up the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to deal with in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can potentially result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Croydon for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.
