It was after seven pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were sitting there discussing the weekend's football, prepared for the 8th call of the day to come in. Eventually we received the call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Burnham-on-Crouch and filled petrol in her diesel Vauxhall rental car. The poor lady was pretty affected it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from our van, we were able to arrive at the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Although we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away satisfied and not so stressed. One more misfuel correction in Essex done well in my books!

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a gloomy Tuesday and we were en route to help an elder sweetheart after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Skoda in Burnham-on-Crouch. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and broken down along a rural road en route to see her family. I punched the location into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I got to the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "I am becoming quite forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel since I'd only purchased it several days ago because my other one, which I used for more than twenty five years, finally stopped working". I got the drain completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a delightful Essex woman!

I'd had a terrific afternoon hiking during the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the next morning as I headed out to aid a young couple who were away in Burnham-on-Crouch. They'd broken down after filling diesel in their BMW, and were around an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the gal telling off her man for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this problem comes to pass constantly in Essex and that it's really nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he still had his ear bent. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I drained out the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed goodbye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if I made the very same mistake... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

Filling the Tank with Wrong Fuel - Getting your diesel engine filled up with petrol can cause a lot of trouble.

Your engine might begin coughing, you might experience stalling, you may see smoke, and you could have issues starting the vehicle. Signs seen in a misfueled diesel to a petrol tank are similar too. Either way, we will fix it for you.

An engine contaminated with water - If you fill up your vehicle with water and not with the incorrect fuel you are also in danger of losing your engine. Engine filled with water needs to be fully drained. Without draining, it will get rusty, and many other issues will soon follow. Our professionals will drain your engine without much sweat. We also provide assistance with filter replacement.

Tank with AdBlue - This contamination takes place when you immediately put AdBlue to your tank or you may have accidentally did it. Misinformation could be among the reasons. People think it?s a fuel additive, it?s not. AdBlue is a liquid that?s added to reduce the harmful effect of your engine?s emission in the exhaust. It should be installed in a separate tank for a particular purpose. Lots and lots of drivers are victims of this contamination but don?t be anxious because we know how to deal with it.

Red Diesel Contamination - Mostly this happens due to accident. It can easily happen if you are distracted or exhausted, from a filling pump or jerry can, and it's no surprise when the AA says as many as 1500 UK garages sell red diesel. If it happens to you, we'll deal with it fast and efficiently.

Old fuel unused for a long time - Another service we readily provide is drainage of old fuel. People might believe that fuel can't go bad, that once stored it can last a long time on end, but that simply isn't true. Fuel degrades after a while. The more it has degraded the more damage it can probably cause on your engine. Don't be tricked if your vehicle runs fine on degraded fuel. It's a disaster waiting to take place. Our team can stop that disaster.

We did a wrong fuel removal exercise near a beautiful residential home in Burnham-on-Crouch a few weeks ago. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and managed to almost get home when my car cut out." Our technician went out, even though it was rather late at night, and performed a standard fuel drain and purge on the Kia to everyone's satisfaction.

A man called us from his Dacia where he had conked out on the congested road. "I mistakenly put unleaded in my diesel car and I soon discovered all about it a number of miles along the road!" Luckily we were able to get out to him in a reasonably short time, taking into consideration the traffic, and he was shortly back behind the wheel.
