It was close to six pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting there talking over the tennis, waiting around for the next telephone call for the day to come in. In due time we got a call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Horsey and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things regrettably happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe space and, as it was only a few minutes away from the office, we could arrive at the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and less concerned. A fuel drain in Norfolk done well in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

Listed here are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in the event that you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pulled into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And obviously take care not to switch on the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel may well lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations fairly expediently.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of your garden full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Norfolk to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Horsey (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the common troubles that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
