Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank sitting in the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and business premises in Essex for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to deal with in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel may bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases fairly expediently.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

What a quality night of sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and I was en route to assist an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel mom's BMW 545 in Sibleys Green. I had been informed she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a rural lane on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped her location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I got to the location and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I am becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd just got it a week ago when my other car, which I had for more than 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she gifted me a toffee and said thank you. What a pleasant Essex woman!

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.
