Services Our Company Offers:

We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Essex we are noticing increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And obviously don't start the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank may lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations pretty easily.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying at the back of your garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Essex for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, if we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.

Vehicle Misfuel Holland-on-Sea - Holland-on-Sea Wrong Fuel

A driver from Holland-on-Sea with a full car of kids in her diesel Toyota had put £50 of petrol at the Tesco service station. She phoned us weeping and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that the vehicle should be alright and that she would be back up and running in no time at all. When we arrived she was visible upset but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She quickly brightened up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the little ones on board."
