Filled petrol in a diesel car in Frogshall? We are sad to hear that, but we're here to help out. WrongFuelSoS.com has two major catch-phrases: Nationwide and Twenty-four hours a day. Moreover, we abide by them carefully. Irrespective of wherever you are in Frogshall or mainland UK we can come to you to help repair your car.

It was close to 8 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were resting there talking over the recent golf results, prepared for the next call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Frogshall and put petrol in a diesel Skoda rental in error. The poor lady was pretty affected it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, also that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure area and, because it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could get to the customer right away. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could return to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home contented and much less apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Norfolk well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Norfolk we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank is going to result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances quite easily.

You should know that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container sitting in the back of the garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Norfolk to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Frogshall (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your car. They will be able to take care of any of the common troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

We managed to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back in to the car. "Thank you for your timely response, and in particular at 1 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
