Below are our top services we offer to our clients.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All around Croydon we have seen progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part due to drivers not understanding how to work with it (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.
If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely don't start the motor - not even to move it into a parking area. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel will produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances quite easily.
Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Croydon for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Old Coulsdon - Old Coulsdon Wrong Fuel
This was certainly what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was close to dawn and almost noone was around. It had become rather quiet until now, and John and I were loafing around looking through several old newspapers. That was a rare tranquil moment in Croydon. It was so relaxing that when my mobile inevitably rang it made me start! The person on the opposite end stated: "I completed my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault". I instructed him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Old Coulsdon 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he thanked us for showing up so rapidly. As we were heading back home we noticed two girls at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. So we got out to change it, to their delight.
