Fuel Drain Tendring - Tendring Vehicle Misfuel

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Tuesday and we were off to help an elder sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel Land Rover in Tendring. I had been told she had left the petrol station and was pulled up on a rural road on the way to see her family. I plugged the location in the Satnav and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I got to the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was working she said, "Now I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel since I'd only acquired it several days back right after my former car, which I'd had for about 25 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain completed and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Essex lady!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Essex we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by people being unsure of how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And absolutely never crank the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol may well trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations rather expediently.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container laying at the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Essex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Tendring (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Essex Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your car. They will handle any of the most common troubles that could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Tendring - Tendring Wrong Fuel

I'd had a fantastic afternoon cycling on my holiday and was feeling contented the next morning as I set off to aid a young family away in Tendring. They'd pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their Suzuki, and the car was about an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smiled to myself as I heard to the gal telling off her husband for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this problem comes to pass frequently in Essex and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he all the same had an ear bashing by his better half. Poor boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Tendring

Reports from our Tendring employees:

We not long ago had a call from a young man who had put the wrong fuel in his Hyundai in Tendring. He had conked out on the road. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem up until the time I broke down. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and had it working again. I was happy with both how fast you were and your prices". It goes without saying that we arrived rapidly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived our fuel drainer said the customer was fuming, but was satisfied after the fuel drain.

Petrol in Diesel Tendring - Tendring Wrong Fuel in Car

A man who had sadly put unleaded in his diesel Ford called us for assistance at the BP petrol filling station in Tendring. He had decided to fill up before proceeding on to the local caravan park . "I put petrol rather than diesel which probably wasn't a great way to start to our holiday." It was no hassle whatsoever for our technical engineer to go along and do the fuel drain. We hope everyone enjoyed their getaway.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Tendring - Tendring Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman phoned us from Tendring to say he unfortunately piped the wrong fuel into his diesel Audi. "Unbelievable! How could I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car!" It only took our fuel drainer around fifty minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel out of the car. He completely cleaned the fuel system and then put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was completely satisfied and it didn't cost him dealership rates to have the task properly done.
