It was just before five pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Brian and I were resting there talking about the weekend's rugby results, waiting around for the seventh call for the day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Redenhall and filled petrol in a diesel Land Rover rental in error. She was somewhat troubled apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe area and, because it was just a few miles off from the office, we were able to find the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home satisfied and a lot less worried. Another misfuel correction in Norfolk done well in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Norfolk we have seen a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out immediately. And of course don't start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel may lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances very easily.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of your garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Norfolk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Fuel Removal Redenhall - Redenhall Fuel Drain

I had a wonderful afternoon golfing on my holiday and was feeling cheerful the following morning as I headed out to aid a new family vacationing in Redenhall. They broken down after inserting the wrong fuel in their Lexus, and the car was around half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled as I heard to the girl telling her husband off for actually being so foolish. "How could you possibly find a way to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this situation takes place regularly in Norfolk and that it's nothing to be concerned about, but he yet still got his ear bent. Poor lad. In any case, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some proper fuel. As they drove off I mouthed good bye and wondered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
