It was before six pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and I were relaxing commenting on the recent tennis rankings, waiting around for the 6th job of the day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Hitcham and filled petrol in her diesel Mazda lease car. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this regrettably can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe area and, as it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off contented and less anxious. Another fuel drain in Suffolk done well in my opinion!

Our Services:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Suffolk we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases fairly simply.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking spot we can reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Suffolk to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, if we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Hitcham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill the car. They can also deal with any of the common problems which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hitcham - Hitcham Fuel Removal

I had enjoyed a terrific evening fishing during the weekend and felt pleased with myself the following morning as I headed out to aid a new family who were holidaying in Hitcham. They stopped after adding petrol into their Suzuki, and they were roughly half an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and smirked as I heard to the wife chastising her partner for actually being so confused. "How could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this comes to pass all the time in Suffolk and that it is nothing to stress about, and yet he still had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyhow, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I shouted good-bye and pondered on what my missus would say to me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd never ever live it down!
