Our Areas of Experience :

Below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Surrey we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not understanding how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And definitely don't crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will likely produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances rather simply.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container at the back of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Surrey to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Haslemere (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill your car. They are also able to fix any of the common issues that can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
