It was around five pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting going over the golf rankings, waiting around for the 8th job that day to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Oxnead and put petrol in her diesel Nissan rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very irritated it seemed, telling me "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, also that such things sadly often happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe position and, seeing as it was just a short distance from our van, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and a lot less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Norfolk done well in my books!

Wrong Fuel Drain Oxnead - Oxnead Fuel Rescue
I'd had a perfect afternoon golfing on my afternoon off and was feeling pleased with myself the following morning as I was on the way to aid a young couple who were vacationing in Oxnead. They had stopped after putting petrol into their Land Rover, and were around half an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and laughed as I heard to the girl telling off her partner for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this comes to pass on daily basis in Norfolk and that it is nothing to stress about, even so he yet still had an earful by his better half. Unlucky boy. Anyhow, I drained out the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I waved so long and wondered what my missus would ask me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

Our Areas of Competency :
Listed below are our top services we give to our customers.
AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Norfolk we have identified progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people not being totally sure the way to use it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.
Well, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you would probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will likely trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases fairly expediently.
Take note that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be wholly wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel container at the back of your garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Norfolk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.
Re-Fueling Service
Run out of fuel in Oxnead (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up the car. They can also fix the normal troubles that could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Oxnead
Some reports:
It can't be nice being stuck in a vehicle with the wrong fuel halfway down the street. Recently a customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (Smart) in Oxnead suffered from precisely this kind of problem: "Obviously I erroneously put petrol in my diesel car . I was so upset about contaminating my fuel that I was besides myself. But I didn't need to worry simply because you were terrific in dealing with the problem."
Fuel Rescue Oxnead - Oxnead Fuel Rescue
This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It had been quite quiet so far, and me and Ryan were loafing browsing several old magazines. It was a rare tranquil hour in Norfolk. Actually it was that relaxing that when the telephone eventually rang I jumped! The person on the phone stated: "I've just concluded my overnight shift and stupidly poured petrol in my Kia by mistake". I got him to tell us just where the car was situated and we headed out, arriving in Oxnead no more than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor. He said thanks for coming out so quickly. While we were coming back to the office we spotted two women at the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we pulled over and helped them change it, to their delight.
