It was after 10 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there talking about the football rankings, waiting for the seventh telephone call for the day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Thickthorn Hall and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Suzuki rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe area and, because it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we could reach the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and less concerned. A fuel drain in Norfolk done well in my opinion!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In Norfolk we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to people not understanding the way to use it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Should you discover youself to be in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the practical competence and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to address in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can potentially result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases pretty easily.

Take note however that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Norfolk to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Thickthorn Hall (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the normal troubles which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
