It was after seven pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and me were relaxing commenting on the football, ready for the sixth job to come in. Eventually we received a call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Depden Green and filled petrol in a diesel Audi hire car by mistake. The poor lady was quite affected by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, also that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to move the car to a protected spot and, as it was only a few miles from the office, we could find the customer right away. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and not so stressed. A fuel drain in Suffolk well done in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Suffolk we have found a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists not knowing how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel will likely lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty quickly.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container lying at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business premises in Suffolk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Depden Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your car. They can also deal with the normal troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Depden Green - Depden Green Petrol in Diesel

A couple weeks ago a man telephoned us right after his Nissan ground to a halt in the middle of a road in Depden Green. He had accidentally put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and drove so far as the street before having to give up. It was yet in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who stays not far away, got to him in about 20 minutes. We managed to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Genuine kudos to you for your timely response, and in particular at 6 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
