Our Areas of Expertise :

Assisting you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Essex we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to start up the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In cases where you have started the car you will in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to take care of in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can certainly produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties in Essex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, providing we can get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Shrub End (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Essex Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your car. They are also able to take care of the typical issues that could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Shrub End - Shrub End Fuel Drain

I'd had a perfect evening golfing during the weekend and was feeling satisfied the following morning as I set off to aid a new couple who were on holiday in Shrub End. They'd broken down after adding diesel into their Vauxhall, and they were close to an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife berating her partner for actually being so daft. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs on daily basis in Essex and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to fret about, and yet he still had an earful by his wife. Poor chap. In any case, I removed all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my wife would do to me if ever I made the exact same blunder... I would under no circumstances live it down!

Recent Fuel Drains in Shrub End

Just a few of the more routine facts we have heard from the employees in Shrub End:

It can't be fun being stranded in a car running on the wrong fuel halfway down the road. Our most recent customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (Skoda) in Shrub End endured exactly that difficulty: "Your technician removed my motor from the road. He removed the wrong fuel from it and had it running again within just a half-hour. Couldn't recommend you more."

Fuel Removal Shrub End - Shrub End Wrong Fuel in Car

This was exactly what is called the night shift. It was close to dawn and nobody was about. It had been fairly quiet up to now, and me and John were relaxing reading through several old magazines. It was an unusual restful time in Essex. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the instant my mobile ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The person on the other end stated: "I have concluded my overnight shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a Land Rover by mistake". I told him to tell us just where the car was and we set off, arriving in Shrub End under an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor and he thanked us for arriving so rapidly. While we were coming back to the depot we noticed two girls at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat. As a result we pulled up to change it, to their delight.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Shrub End - Shrub End Fuel Drain

A man contacted us from his residence on a close in Shrub End. He said, "My car (a Hyundai) is not starting and is creating dreadful noises when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel car but then reckoned he would resolve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, did the drain and filled him up once more with fresh Diesel. He told us he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.
