It was about seven pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were sitting there going over the recent golf rankings, at the ready for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Daws Cross and put petrol in a diesel Audi rental car. She was pretty affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this happen. She was able to move the car into a protected position and, as it was just a few miles from the office, we could get to the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Essex well done in my mind!

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any related problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Essex we have seen increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is going to trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases quite swiftly.

Remember though that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container at the back of your premises containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Essex to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a storage shed, providing we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Daws Cross (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to handle the typical troubles that could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Daws Cross - Daws Cross Wrong Fuel Drain

A couple of days ago a driver telephoned us just after his Skoda ground to a halt in the middle of a road in Daws Cross. He had by mistake put unleaded in the diesel vehicle and got as far as the street before needing to pull up. It was in the early hours of the morning and our technician, who resides close by, was with him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to get rid of the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the vehicle. "Many kudos to you for your immediate response, especially at 6 a.m., I am grateful for it."
