It was close to 7 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there talking over the recent tennis results, ready for the next call for the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Mashbury and filled petrol in her diesel Peugeot rental car in error. The poor thing was rather distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected area and, since it was just a few minutes away from us, we could reach the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the motel she was living in. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and a lot less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Essex well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Essex we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not understanding the way to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may well cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Essex to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Mashbury (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Essex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car. They are also able to deal with the normal issues that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

A man called us from his place on a street in Mashbury. He explained, "My car (a Mercedes) is not running and is generating very bad sounds when I flip the ignition." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle however imagined he would resolve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top.
