Brian and me were seated there discussing the weekend's football results, at the ready for the 8th job that day to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell filling station in Walsoken and put petrol in her diesel Porsche rental in error.

Services We Provide:

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you?ve poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? It is actually harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly never start the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If you have started the car you will likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances very easily.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Petrol in Diesel Walsoken - Walsoken Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a fantastic afternoon fishing on the weekend and was feeling pleased the next day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were holidaying in Walsoken. They'd conked out after filling petrol in their MG, and the car was around half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked while I heard to the gal chastising her spouse for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this problem occurs quite frequently in Norfolk and that it's truly absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still got his ear bent. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and wondered what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the same mistake... I'd personally never live it down!
