It was just before eight pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's golf, prepared for the sixth job that day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Rowhedge and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda lease car. The poor lady was very distressed apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that these things happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure spot and, seeing as it was just a short distance off from us, we were able to find the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and not so worried. One more misfuel correction in Essex well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Essex we have encountered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances very swiftly.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the back of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Essex to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Rowhedge (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with any of the usual troubles that can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Rowhedge - Rowhedge Vehicle Misfuel

A couple of days ago a man telephoned us because his Dacia cut out on a road in Rowhedge. He had by accident put unleaded in the diesel car and managed to get to the road before needing to pull up. It was still early in the day and our engineer, who lives not far away, got to him in about a quarter hour. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in the car. "Many kudos to you for your fast response, particularly at 6 a.m., I appreciate it."
