It was about 5 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing discussing the recent tennis, at the ready for the sixth job that day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Parkeston and filled petrol in a diesel Peugeot rental. She was fairly irritated it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things happen. She was able to get the car to a secure spot and, since it was just a few miles from the office, we were able to get to the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Even though we got very wet, it was all worth it to see her drive away calm and not so apprehensive. Yet another job in Essex well done in my books!

Our Fields of Specialties:

We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid composed of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water.Adblue can be devastating to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, resulting in serious and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained right away. And most definitely don't crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to address in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will often result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations very swiftly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container laying at the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Essex to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Parkeston (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They can also fix any of the typical troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
