It was around 6 pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and me were sitting there going over the recent tennis results, waiting around for the seventh job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Chafford Hundred and filled petrol in a diesel Mitsubishi lease car. The unfortunate lady was very distressed it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that these things regrettably can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected area and, as it was only a few miles off from us, we could get to her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could get back to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Essex well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made out of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue tends to be harmful to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will be dragged into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to address in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will likely trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances very expediently.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Essex for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Vehicle Misfuel Chafford Hundred - Chafford Hundred Fuel Rescue

I had appreciated a perfect evening fishing during my off day and was feeling contented the next morning as I headed out to help a new family away in Chafford Hundred. They pulled over after putting petrol into their Honda, and they were about half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled while I listened to the woman chastising her man for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this situation comes to pass on a regular basis in Essex and that it's actually nothing at all to worry about, however he all the same got an earful. Poor guy. Anyway, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some right fuel. As they drove away I waved hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the very same thing... I would personally never live it down!
