It was just after seven pm on a Friday and while we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Paul and me were seated discussing the weekend's rugby results, waiting around for the 6th job of the day to come in. Before long we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Kirby Cane and put petrol in her diesel Vauxhall rental car. She was rather irritated apparently, saying "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from the office, we were able to get to the woman right away. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and much less anxious.

Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

In Norfolk we have discovered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you end up in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the technical skills and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to handle in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can potentially result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases fairly easily.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank placed at the back of your premises containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Norfolk to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Kirby Cane (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with the usual problems which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
