It was after 10 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring! James and I were resting discussing the recent footy results, waiting for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Hastingwood and put petrol in a diesel Renault lease car. The unfortunate lady was pretty troubled apparently, telling me "I can not believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was just a few miles away from where we were, we could find the lady right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and much less concerned. A misfuel correction in Essex done well in my books!

Our Services:

Below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Essex we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly due to drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have the technical skills and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious situation to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is going to lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations fairly expediently.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous private and business properties in Essex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a garage, providing we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.
