Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.
AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Essex we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not understanding how to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the car.
Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can potentially cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances quite easily.
You should know though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Essex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, provided that we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

We can come to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill up the car. They are also able to fix any of the usual issues that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Harwich
Here are comments and instances of contaminated fuel removal we have done in Harwich:
Now I'm not actually so excited about doing work weekends, and a week ago was the same. I had only just departed the family after having a tasty Sunday roast prepared for me by the wife, and I was on the way to sort out a man because he filled the wrong fuel in his Renault. He was only in Harwich so I arrived with him quickly. As I drove up at the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my attention on something else and didn't realise I had put diesel in my petrol car. Have I inflicted damage simply by starting it?" I stated that there should not be any kind of harm and also that I would drain the fuel as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in the correct fuel, and then one more happy motorist was able to continue their journey without bother. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what helps make earning a living on weekends in Essex that little bit less painful for me!
Vehicle Misfuel Harwich - Harwich Fuel Removal
This was exactly an unsociable time to be awake. It was close to 3am and almost noone was stirring. It was rather quiet up to now, and me and Ray were loafing browsing several old articles. It was a rare peaceful time in Essex. It was so calm that when the phone rang it made me jump! The customer on the phone explained: "I've only just finished my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in my diesel MINI in error". We got him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Harwich less than half an hour later. The fuel was removed from the engine and he thanked us for getting there so promptly. While we were heading back home we saw two ladies at the side of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we got out to help them change it, to their delight.
