It was close to 5 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry day, it had not given up on pouring! Ryan and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's footy, waiting around for the 6th job of the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Tatterford and filled petrol in her diesel Ford rental by mistake. The poor thing was quite distressed it seemed, saying "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!"

Our Areas of Experience :

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Norfolk we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you end up in this scenario don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the practical skills and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to address in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases rather quickly.

Remember that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Norfolk to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in a garage, as long as we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run out of fuel in Tatterford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home.

A motorist had broken down off a street in Tatterford. His Jaguar engine had ceased running and he had no idea what was wrong until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the evening before and that must have been the reason why.
