We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most definitely never crank the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases rather easily.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Norfolk to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Morningthorpe (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill the car. They will handle any of the common issues which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
