Listed below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Essex we are identifying progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely never crank the vehicle - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank at the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Essex for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Epping (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Essex Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They can also handle the usual problems that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.


Fuel Rescue Epping - Epping Fuel Drain

I had a perfect afternoon cycling on the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I set off to help a young couple who were on vacation in Epping. They pulled over after putting the wrong fuel in their Volkswagen, and were around half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled while I listened to the girl telling her man off for being so foolish. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs everyday in Essex and that it's really nothing to fret about, but he all the same got his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some right fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd never ever live it down!


Recent Fuel Drains in Epping

Some of the usual troubles we see from our technicians in Epping:

We were called by a gentleman whose Volvo had conked out on a street after a misfuel. "I got the pumps confused and pumped the wrong fuel in my car . You came out and sorted out the matter after my vehicle stopped." We purged the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the engine meticulously afterwards and the motorist could then go on with his deliveries.

Wrong Fuel Drain Epping - Epping Wrong Fuel Doctor

A young lady from Epping with her little ones in her diesel Renault had put £50 of petrol at the Co Op station. She contacted us crying and genuinely worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and did not know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that the car would be okay and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she discovered that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the youngsters in the back."

Fuel Rescue Epping - Epping Fuel Removal

A customer had conked out off a street in Epping. His Mitsubishi engine had ceased running and he had no idea what was awry until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten virtually no sleep the night before and that could have been the reason why.
