It was just after five pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not given up on pouring! Paul and me were seated talking about the recent tennis, waiting for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Coombe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi rental by mistake. She was fairly affected apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe area and, because it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away satisfied and a lot less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Croydon well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

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

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed in the event that you may have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? Adblue can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in your fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And of course be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to move it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel will often bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations fairly quickly.

Remember that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container in the rear of your garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business properties in Croydon to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Coombe (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your car. They can also take care of any of the normal issues that might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
