It was just before seven pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were seated discussing the recent football results, waiting for the 8th call for the day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Great Saling and put the wrong fuel in a diesel BMW lease car. She was very distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we were able to find the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off relaxed and not so anxious. Yet another job in Essex done well in my mind!

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Essex we have identified progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the car.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And absolutely never switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances quite easily.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying at the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Essex to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Great Saling (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill your automobile. They will be able to deal with the common troubles which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.
