It was around five pm on a Friday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and me were relaxing there going over the tennis results, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Burrsville Park and put petrol in a diesel Mitsubishi hire car in error. She was rather irritated it seemed, saying "I can not believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this happen. She was able to get the car to a safe position and, because it was just a short distance off from us, we were able to find the woman swiftly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive away relaxed and not so worried. A job in Essex done well in my opinion!

Services We Give:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Essex we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to people not being totally sure the way to use it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And absolutely don't start up the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases rather quickly.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container sitting in the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Essex to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Burrsville Park (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Essex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car. They will be able to deal with the most common issues which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
