Before long we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Surbiton and filled petrol in a diesel Mercedes hire car in error.

Services We Provide:

Below are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do if you have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely damaging to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, leading to serious and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And of course don't switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In case you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will often bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Vehicle Misfuel Surbiton - Surbiton Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a wonderful evening cycling on my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I was on the way to help a new couple vacationing in Surbiton. They broken down after filling the wrong fuel into their MINI, and were roughly half an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the gal chastising her husband for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing goes on constantly in Kingston upon Thames and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful by his missus. Unfortunate boy. Anyway, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I mouthed good-bye and wondered what my wife would tell me in the event that I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
