It was after eight pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and me were relaxing there discussing the weekend's footy rankings, waiting around for the sixth telephone call for the day to come in. Before long we received the call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Frinton and Walton and put petrol in a diesel Volkswagen rental. The poor lady was pretty distressed apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure position and, because it was only a short distance away from where we were, we could reach her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and much less concerned. Another job in Essex done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Essex we are noticing more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Should you end up in this situation don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the specialised competence and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to deal with in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is likely to bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations very simply.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank at the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Essex to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Fuel Rescue Frinton and Walton - Frinton and Walton Petrol in Diesel

Yesterday a motorist contacted us right after his Land Rover stopped in the middle of a road in Frinton and Walton. He had accidentally put petrol in the diesel vehicle and had managed to get so far as the street before needing to halt. It was really in the early hours of the day and our technical engineer, who stays locally, got to him in approximately 20 minutes. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, particularly at 1 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
