It was just before six pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were relaxing going over the weekend's golf results, waiting around for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we received the call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Duddenhoe End and filled petrol in a diesel bright red Audi Allroad rental. The unfortunate lady was pretty irritated it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things sadly do happen. She was able to get the car into a protected area and, seeing that it was just a few minutes from our van, we could arrive at the customer right away. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off calm and less anxious. One more fuel drain in Essex done well in my books!

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank in the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Essex we are identifying progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from people not understanding the way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly don't switch on the motor - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Duddenhoe End - Wrong Fuel in Car Duddenhoe End

I had enjoyed a perfect afternoon hiking during my off day and felt delighted with myself the following day as I headed out to help a young family who were holidaying in Duddenhoe End. They'd broken down after inserting the wrong fuel in their dad's Chrysler PT Cruiser, and they were approximately an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and smiled while I listened to the girl chastising her hubby for being so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this problem takes place continuously in Essex and that it's nothing to fret about, but he still had an earful. Unfortunate chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some proper fuel. As they drove off I shouted farewell and wondered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I would personally never live it down!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
