It was close to 6 pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a rainless day, it had not given up on raining! Mark and me were sitting there talking over the weekend's rugby, prepared for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the BP petrol station in Crays Hill and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Vauxhall lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to worry, also that such things regrettably can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, as it was just a few minutes away from us, we could reach the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the motel she was residing at.

AdBlue Contamination

In Essex we are identifying increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Whenever you end up in this situation don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank is going to contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases rather simply.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container at the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Essex for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Crays Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They can also fix the usual issues that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
