It was just after 7 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, ready for the 8th call for the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Westgate and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT rental car in error. The poor thing was very agitated it seemed, saying "I still can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly do happen.

The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at.

Our Services:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in case you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made of a blend of high-purity ionized water (67.5%) and urea.Adblue tends to be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, bringing about serious and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And of course do not start the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases quite easily.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to an automobile parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Norfolk to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Westgate (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the most common problems that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
