It was about ten pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! James and me were relaxing discussing the recent golf, ready for the seventh job to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in South Benfleet and filled petrol in a diesel Dacia rental car. The poor thing was quite affected it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe that I've messed up the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that things like this regrettably can happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance from us, we could find the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was staying in.

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do in case you have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will be injected into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And absolutely do not crank the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel may well result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases quite simply.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank placed in the back of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Essex to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in South Benfleet (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Essex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your automobile if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up the car. They will take care of the normal troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Drain South Benfleet - South Benfleet Wrong Fuel Doctor

A gentleman had conked out just near a street in South Benfleet. His Vauxhall car had stopped operating and he'd no clue what was faulty till he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can't believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the night before and that must have been the reason.
