It was about 8 pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! James and me were relaxing there going over the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting for the sixth job for the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Brick End and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Kia hire car. The poor lady was very distressed it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from us, we were able to arrive at the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home calm and less worried. Another fuel drain in Essex done well in my opinion!

Below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Essex we are identifying more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it immediately. And obviously be careful not to start up the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. In case you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to handle in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will often cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances quite swiftly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Essex for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Brick End (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete Essex Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your car. They will handle the most common problems that can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Brick End - Brick End Wrong Fuel Assist

A guy had conked out near a street in Brick End. His Kia engine had ceased functioning and he'd no idea what was wrong until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten zero rest the evening before and that must have been the reason.
