It was close to 8 pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased raining! James and me were seated there talking over the recent sports rankings, at the ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Holt and put the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW lease car. She was fairly affected apparently, stating "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this sadly can happen. She was able to move the car to a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and less concerned. Another fuel drain in Norfolk well done in my mind!

We can help you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Norfolk we have encountered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by people not being totally sure how to work with it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases rather swiftly.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying at the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Norfolk to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, if we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Holt (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and refill your automobile. They are also able to take care of any of the most common troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Holt - Holt Wrong Fuel Drain

A week ago a customer called us because his Vauxhall stopped working in the middle of a road in Holt. He had by accident put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and drove as far as the road before having to pull over. It was yet early in the day and our fuel drainer, who stays close by, was with him in about fifteen minutes. We managed to remove the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again into the car. "Thank you for your fast response, especially at 3 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
