It was about five pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated there talking over the football rankings, at the ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in High Roding and put petrol in her diesel Ford lease car. The poor thing was quite irritated apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to relocate the car into a protected space and, because it was only a few miles from our van, we could reach the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive away calm and not so anxious. One more fuel drain in Essex done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Competency :

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Essex we have identified progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can easily bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations rather quickly.

Remember however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Essex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, providing we can access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in High Roding (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Essex Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They are also able to fix the typical issues that can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in High Roding

Several examples:

I'm not necessarily that interested in working on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I'd just departed home after a lovely Sunday roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was on my way to assist a guy after he had put the wrong fuel in his Dacia. He was located in High Roding and so it wasn't long before I arrived with him. As I arrived right behind the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I had my thoughts on other considerations and didn't ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought on any damage by driving it?" I determined that there should not be any kind of damage and that I would remove the fuel immediately for him. Obviously I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and then yet another satisfied client was able to continue his trip without the fuss. The man could not stop thanking me, and that makes working on weekends in Essex a little bit easier to me!

This really was what we call the night shift. It was about sunrise and almost noone was around. It had become fairly uneventful up to now, and Paul and I were sitting reading through several old papers. It was a rare quiet moment in Essex. It was indeed that relaxing that the instant the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The voice on the phone explained: "I've just concluded my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in a diesel Dacia in error". We got him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was located and we hit the road, arriving in High Roding under half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned from the motor and he thanked us for showing up so promptly. As we were returning to the depot we spotted two young ladies at the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over to help them change it, much to their delight.
