It was just after 7 pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were sitting there talking about the weekend's rugby, ready for the 6th fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Yelverton and put petrol in her diesel Suzuki lease car in error. The poor thing was rather affected it seemed, saying "I cannot believe I've ruined the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, as it was just a few miles from us, we were able to reach her quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and less anxious. One more fuel drain in Norfolk done well in my mind!

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we have encountered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to people not knowing the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly don't turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Norfolk for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a shed, as long as we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Yelverton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to fix any of the standard troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Yelverton - Yelverton Petrol in Diesel

He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would remedy the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He said that he would be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
