It was close to 8 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and me were sitting there commenting on the recent sports results, ready for the 8th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Winfarthing and put petrol in her diesel Nissan rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather agitated it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to get the car to a protected spot and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from our van, we were able to reach the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off calm and a lot less worried. A job in Norfolk done well in my books!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do if you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made out of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water.It is definitely disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol is going to result in idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty easily.

Remember though that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed at the back of the garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Norfolk for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Winfarthing (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They will be able to take care of the standard problems which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Winfarthing - Winfarthing Wrong Fuel Drain

A lady from Winfarthing with a full car of kids in her diesel Peugeot had filled her car with £42 of petrol at the BP station. She called us weeping and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle . We assured her that the vehicle should be ok and that she would be back up and running in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that help was at hand and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the kids on board."
