It was before 10 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and me were resting talking over the weekend's sports results, waiting for the sixth telephone call to come in. Eventually we had a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the BP filling station in West Lynn and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Toyota rental. The poor lady was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, also that these things regrettably happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could reach her right away. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Norfolk done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Norfolk we have noticed a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not knowing how to use it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely don't crank the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations pretty swiftly.

You should know that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the back of your premises full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Norfolk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in West Lynn (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and refill the car. They are also able to take care of the most common issues that might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
