It was close to 9 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were sitting commenting on the footy results, at the ready for the 8th job to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Upgate and put petrol in her diesel Honda rental car. The poor thing was pretty troubled it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could go home to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another job in Norfolk well done in my mind!

Services We Provide:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue is definitely harmful to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in the tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will often trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances pretty simply.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank placed at the back of the garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Norfolk to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Upgate (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up the car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your automobile. They can also take care of any of the common troubles that might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

A customer had stopped off a road in Upgate. His Peugeot motor had stopped functioning and he'd no idea what was wrong till he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel car.
