If you've mistakenly put the wrong fuel in your car and immediately have to have a fuel drain you are likely scanning the internet looking for a quick, trusted, proficient and a relatively inexpensive wrong fuel removal company in Swannington or Norfolk. We are the people to help you!

It was close to ten pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing talking about the weekend's football rankings, at the ready for the next fuel drain that day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Swannington and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart lease car by mistake. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this sadly often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from where we were, we could reach her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could return to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive home relaxed and much less apprehensive. Another job in Norfolk well done in my books!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Below are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we are noticing a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not knowing how to use it (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you get in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the specialised expertise and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel may well bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances quite easily.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Norfolk to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Swannington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They will be able to handle the normal troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Swannington - Swannington Wrong Fuel

Yesterday a driver called us because his Land Rover ground to a halt in the middle of a street in Swannington. He had inadvertently put petrol in his diesel vehicle and drove to the street before being forced to pull over. It was still early in the morning and our technical engineer, who stays close by, arrived with him in approximately a quarter hour. We managed to drain the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back in the car. "Thank you for your timely response, especially at 2 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
