Our Fields of Specialties:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Essex we are discovering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people not being totally sure the way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely never switch on the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you did start the car you may probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is likely to bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases very easily.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container at the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Essex to deal with 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. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Tilbury Green (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Essex Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill your car or truck. They can also handle the normal troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Tilbury Green

Just a few of the routine things we get from the technicians in Tilbury Green:

Now I am not ever overly hot for carrying out work on weekends, and last week was no different. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids after having a lovely Sunday roast prepared by the better half, and I was off to deal with a guy because he put the wrong fuel in his Volkswagen. He was somewhere in Tilbury Green so I was on scene before long. As I drove up behind the car and stepped out he told me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on other considerations and did not grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought on problems as a result of starting it?" I explained generally there should not be any problems and that also I'd remove the contaminated fuel quickly. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and then yet another happy client could carry on with his journey without bother. The guy did not stop thanking me, and this makes working on Sundays in Essex just that little bit easier for me personally!

Vehicle Misfuel Tilbury Green - Tilbury Green Fuel Rescue

A driver from Tilbury Green with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Nissan had filled her vehicle with £50 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She phoned us weeping and genuinely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what might happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that all should be alright and that she would be in action very quickly. When we got there she was still upset but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the kids in the back."
