Our Areas of Competency :

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Norfolk we have found more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And certainly be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel will result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances quite easily.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Norfolk to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Toft Monks (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your car or truck. They are also able to fix any of the most common issues which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
