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

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Essex we have identified an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely don't start the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to address in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank may well cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases rather simply.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Essex for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Dovercourt (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your automobile. They are also able to handle the common problems that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Dovercourt - Dovercourt Wrong Fuel Drain

A motorist who had put unleaded in his diesel Citroen contacted us for a fuel drain at the Murco filling station in Dovercourt. He had decided to top up before continuing on to the nearby holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded rather than diesel and it wasn't a wonderful start to our getaway." It was definitely no hassle by any means for our fuel drainer to go along and carry out the fuel drain. We hope they had a good vacation.
