Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue Contamination

In Norfolk we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at once. And definitely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking area. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to deal with in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can potentially cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations very swiftly.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Norfolk to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a shed, if we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Out of fuel in Saxlingham Nethergate (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your car.
