Our Areas of Competency :

Here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Essex we have found increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not understanding the right way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely don't turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations rather swiftly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Essex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Leaden Roding (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car. They will be able to deal with any of the typical problems that may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Leaden Roding - Leaden Roding Wrong Fuel Drain

A customer had conked out near a street in Leaden Roding. His Vauxhall car had ceased functioning and he'd no clue what was wrong until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got absolutely no rest the day before and that could have been the key reason why.
