Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Essex we are noticing a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not being aware of how to to make use of (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it right away. And certainly don't start the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances quite simply.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container sitting at the back of your garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Essex to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Stonebridge (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They will take care of any of the usual problems which could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Stonebridge - Stonebridge Petrol in Diesel

A man phoned us from Stonebridge saying he had mistakenly piped petrol in to his diesel SEAT. "Unbelievable! I can't believe I put unleaded in my lovely diesel car!" It took our technician about 50 minutes to fully drain the contaminated fuel from the car. He carefully flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put fresh diesel in the car. The customer was completely satisfied and it hadn't cost him dealership rates to get the job properly completed.
