It was around 8 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were seated there talking about the recent rugby rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in North Ockendon and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes lease car in error. The poor thing was pretty distressed it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to move the car into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we were able to get to the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could get back to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and a lot less worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Havering well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Experience :

Listed here are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Havering we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol may bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations fairly expediently.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Havering to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in North Ockendon (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Havering Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill the car. They can also fix the common troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist North Ockendon - North Ockendon Fuel Rescue

I'd had a great evening hiking on my off day and was feeling contented the next day as I headed out to aid a young family who were on vacation in North Ockendon. They'd stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their Kia, and they were close to an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked while I listened to the girl telling her partner off for actually being so daft. "How could you actually be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs regularly in Havering and that it's really nothing to fret about, but he yet still got an ear bashing by his better half. Poor chap. In any case, I removed all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. As they drove off I shouted bon voyage and thought about what my missus would tell me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!
