It was after 5 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were relaxing there talking over the recent rugby, waiting around for the sixth call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Hadstock and put petrol in her diesel Citroen lease car in error. She was quite irritated apparently, crying "I can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that such things can happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was no more than a few miles away from our van, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off calm and a lot less apprehensive. A job in Essex done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Essex we are noticing increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will likely result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container in the back of your garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Essex to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a garage, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Hadstock (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Essex Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the typical troubles which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Hadstock - Hadstock Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a fantastic day hiking during my afternoon off and felt delighted with myself the next day as I set out to aid a young family on vacation in Hadstock. They conked out after adding diesel into their Audi, and were approximately half an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and laughed while I heard to the wife telling her husband off for being so confused. "How could you even manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on on daily basis in Essex and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, but he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I shouted bon voyage and considered what my missus would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!
