It was before 6 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it had not stopped raining! James and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's football rankings, prepared for the sixth job of the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell filling station in Dilham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen hire car. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things sadly often happen. She was able to move the car into a safe space and, as it was just a few minutes off from our van, we were able to get to the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the motel she was living at. Although we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off calm and much less worried. Another fuel drain in Norfolk done well in my books!

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

Wrong fuel put in the tank - Petrol fuel in a diesel engine causes a lot of trouble to your engine. It may begin to cough and stall. The exhaust of your car will start to produce a lot of smoke and starting the engine is definitely a difficult task, especially if the engine has cooled off. Reversing the incorrect fuel, diesel in a petrol tank, the symptoms you will observe are similar. Either way, we will fix it for you.

Tank filled up with water - Water can contaminate your engine and it should be taken out of the fuel system in order to avoid damages and rust in your engine. Once you accelerate hard your engine, it may begin to rev up and jolt. Contamination like this is not just common in boats. This can happen to the vehicle too due to the jerry cans that were previously used as a water container then later utilized as fuel container where water was not totally emptied.

Tank with AdBlue - This contamination occurs when you directly put AdBlue to your tank or you may have mistakenly did it. Misinformation could be one of the reasons. People think it?s a fuel additive, it?s not. AdBlue is a liquid that?s added to reduce the dangerous effect of your engine?s emission in the exhaust. It should be installed in an individual tank for a particular purpose. Lots and lots of drivers are victims of this contamination but don?t worry as we know how to handle it.

Red Diesel Contamination - Mostly this takes place because of accident. Distraction or not focused in filling the tank from a tank or jerry can is one of the usual reasons of this contamination. This can probably take place because there are 1500 UK garages that sell this type of diesel. If it happens to you, we'll handle it fast and efficiently.

Driving with Old Fuel - As time passes by and your car or truck is idle for a while, the quality of your fuel degrades. This occurs if the vehicle is not driven and has been on standby for a long time and the fuel has been in the tank unused. Your engine might start and run, but it probably will not run as well. Old fuel must be drained out, and it's a service we offer.

Fuel Removal Dilham - Dilham Fuel Drain

I had a fantastic afternoon golfing during my holiday and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Dilham. They had conked out after inserting diesel in their Fiat, and were roughly half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smirked as I listened to the gal chastising her hubby for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing takes place frequently in Norfolk and that it's truly absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. Poor chap. Anyways, I drained all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted goodbye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the same error... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
