Wrong Fuel in Car Grays, Essex
Fuel Drain Grays - Grays Petrol in Diesel
Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Tuesday and I was en route to help an older woman who put petrol in her diesel Porsche in Grays. I'd been told she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded in a backwater lane en route to visit her family. I popped her location in the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I turned up at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel because I'd only just got it a few days ago when my old one, which I owned for over 25 years, inevitably broke down". I got the job done and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Essex woman!

It was just after seven pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining!

In due time we had the phone call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Grays and put petrol in her diesel Skoda rental by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably happen. She had managed to move the car into a protected area and, since it was just a short distance off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging in. Even though we got very wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Essex done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel
All over Essex we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the car.
So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to crank the motor - not even to shift it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will often result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases rather easily.
Be aware that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Got an old fuel tank laying at the rear of your premises containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial properties in Essex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we can drain it.
