It was close to eight pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were sitting there discussing the recent golf rankings, prepared for the 6th call for the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Hockley and filled petrol in her diesel BMW hire car. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and that such things sadly do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from us, we could find her without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home relaxed and less stressed. One more fuel drain in Essex well done in my books!

Services We Deliver:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it if you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made from a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water.Adblue can be disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

Call us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases fairly quickly.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Essex for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

We will get out to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home.
