It was just after six pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting there talking about the sports rankings, at the ready for the seventh call to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Borley Green and filled petrol in her diesel Chevrolet rental. The unfortunate thing was quite irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to move the car into a safe area and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we were able to get to the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away relaxed and a lot less stressed. Yet another job in Essex well done in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Essex we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not understanding the right way to use it (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Phone us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank is going to result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank laying at the back of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Essex to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Borley Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Essex Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill the car. They are also able to fix any of the common problems that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
