Wrong Fuel in Car Minnow End, Essex
Wrong Fuel in Car Minnow End - Minnow End Petrol in Diesel
What a great night's sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Wednesday and I was on the way to assist an older sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel Volkswagen in Minnow End. I'd been told she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded along a backwater lane en route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she explained, "Now I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I had just bought it a couple of days back after my old car, which I'd used for over 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a precious Essex lady!

It was just before six pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were sitting talking about the weekend's sports results, prepared for the next job for the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Minnow End and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Toyota rental car. She was rather irritated it seemed, stating "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a safe space and, as it was just a few minutes away from the office, we were able to find the customer fairly quickly.

Services We Give:
These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Essex we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
Call us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important issue to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol will often produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances rather quickly.
Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we can reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Essex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced 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 reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Fuel Rescue Minnow End - Minnow End Wrong Fuel Drain
This was certainly what is called the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and almost noone was around. It had become quite uneventful thus far, and me and John were loafing about perusing several old articles. This was a rare restful time in Essex. It was indeed that peaceful that the instant my mobile rang it made me jump! The voice told me: "I only just completed my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in my diesel SEAT in error". I got him to tell us just where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Minnow End only an hour later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the car and he thanked us profusely for arriving so promptly. As we were going back to the office we noticed two girls on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. As a result we pulled up to change it, much to their delight.
