It was just after 9 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were relaxing there going over the tennis results, waiting around for the seventh job to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Coney Weston and filled petrol in a diesel Hyundai lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance from the office, we were able to get to the woman quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home relaxed and less concerned. A job in Suffolk done well in my opinion!

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Suffolk we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly do not turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking area. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases rather easily.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container laying at the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Suffolk to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Coney Weston (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the common problems that may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Coney Weston - Coney Weston Fuel Drain

A while back a man called us when his Vauxhall cut out on a street in Coney Weston. He had accidentally put unleaded in his diesel car and got so far as the road before being forced to pull over. It was still early in the morning and our fuel drainer, who lives close by, arrived with him in less than fifteen minutes. We were able to get rid of the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your prompt response, particularly at 6 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."
