It was after 9 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were seated talking over the recent rugby results, waiting for the 6th call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Bacton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen rental car in error. She was quite agitated apparently, crying "I still can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things happen. She had managed to get the car into a secure area and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could get to the woman without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could get back to the hotel she was residing in. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off satisfied and much less apprehensive. One more job in Norfolk done well in my mind!

Listed here are the top services we offer to our customers.
AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Norfolk we have identified increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not knowing the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
If you get in this scenario don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have the technical know-how and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will likely cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations quite simply.
Be aware that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have an old fuel container placed at the back of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Norfolk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.
