It was close to 10 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on pouring down rain!

Before long we had the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Chertsey and filled petrol in her diesel Lexus rental in error. The poor thing was pretty agitated it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!"

Our Fields of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:
Below are our top services we deliver to our clients.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Surrey we have noticed a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by drivers not being aware of how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the automobile.
So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.
Phone us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to address in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances fairly simply.
Be aware though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Surrey to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

We are able to get out to fill up the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home.

Fuel Rescue Chertsey - Chertsey Fuel Drain
I had a great afternoon hiking during my off day and felt pleased with myself the following day as I was on the way to aid a young family who were vacationing in Chertsey. They conked out after filling petrol in their Honda, and were approximately an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled as I listened to the lady berating her husband for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing occurs constantly in Surrey and that it's nothing at all to fret about, however he still got an ear bashing. Poor chap. In any case, I drained the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved good-bye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the very same thing... I would never ever live it down!
