It was close to 8 pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting there discussing the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain of the day to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Hunworth and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mitsubishi hire car by mistake. She was very affected apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected area and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from where we were, we could find the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could return to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and much less stressed. Another job in Norfolk well done in my books!

Our Areas of Expertise:

Listed here are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Norfolk we have found increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the car.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Should you get in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can certainly produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations quite swiftly.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying at the back of your garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Norfolk to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Hunworth (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill the car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the typical problems that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
