These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we have seen progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of motorists not knowing how to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And certainly be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying in the back of your premises full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Norfolk to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Snettisham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill the car. They will be able to handle the normal problems that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
