Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Great Waltham

If you've put the wrong fuel in your car and now have to have the wrong fuel removed you are most likely trawling the web hunting for a swift, reliable, expert and price effective fuel drain company in Great Waltham or Essex. We are the contractor to suit your needs!

It was after 6 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were relaxing talking about the sports rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Great Waltham and filled petrol in a diesel Land Rover lease car in error. She was rather distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to relocate the car into a protected spot and, because it was only a few miles away from us, we could find the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off calm and less worried. Another misfuel correction in Essex well done in my books!

Below are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Essex we are encountering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not knowing how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Should you end up in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the practical skills and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations quite quickly.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business properties in Essex to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Great Waltham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Essex Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and fill up the car. They can also deal with any of the typical issues that can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Great Waltham - Great Waltham Petrol in Diesel

A man phoned us from his place on a close in Great Waltham. He said, "My car (a Porsche) is not starting and is generating very bad noises when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then believed he would solve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, did the drain and filled him up once more with untainted Diesel. He said after that he'd be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out promptly.
