Petrol in Diesel Great Horkesley - Great Horkesley Fuel Rescue
What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a warm Wednesday and I was on the way to help an old sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Suzuki in Great Horkesley. I'd been informed she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a country road en route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched in the Satnav and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I arrived at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel since I had just purchased it a few days back because my former car, which I'd had for more than twenty years, eventually died". I got the drain done and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Essex woman!

It was around 8 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ray and me were seated there going over the sports, waiting around for the seventh job of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling station in Great Horkesley and filled petrol in a diesel Nissan rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a safe spot and, as it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we were able to find the lady without delay. The wrong fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off contented and much less anxious. Yet another job in Essex well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel
In Essex we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part due to drivers not knowing the way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.
Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
Phone us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances fairly swiftly.
Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial 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 a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.
Run Out of Fuel Support
Run out of fuel in Great Horkesley (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the normal issues that could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

A customer living in Great Horkesley contacted us as soon as she tried to get her misfueled automobile to the office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Volkswagen and, like many before her, imagined that she would be able to just top up the car with diesel and it would be no problem. The car was chugging and then it died when she got to the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted in an hour or so while she was working. She came out soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm very relieved you fixed my car."

The customer was completely satisfied and it didn't cost him dealer rates to have the job professionally performed.
