Services We Deliver:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

In Croydon we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations very quickly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Croydon to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Run out of fuel in Selsdon (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home.
