It was about six pm on a Friday and although we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and me were resting commenting on the golf, at the ready for the next telephone call that day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Fiddlers Hamlet and put petrol in a diesel Jaguar rental car by mistake. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe that I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, also that such things can happen. She managed to get the car to a protected space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from where we were, we were able to get to her rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and a lot less stressed. Another job in Essex done well in my books!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Essex we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to people not understanding the way to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to deal with in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can potentially cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Essex for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Fiddlers Hamlet (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They can also deal with any of the normal problems that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
