It was about ten pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were resting talking over the weekend's rugby, prepared for the sixth call of the day to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Lower Layham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Peugeot hire car in error. She was pretty agitated apparently, saying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, since it was only a few minutes from the office, we could find the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home calm and not so anxious. Yet another job in Suffolk well done in my books!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely be careful not to start up the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel is going to cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations quite simply.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Lower Layham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They can also handle any of the common troubles that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Lower Layham - Lower Layham Wrong Fuel

I had a fantastic afternoon hiking on my off day and felt pleased with myself the next day as I was on the way to help a new family on vacation in Lower Layham. They pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their MINI, and were approximately half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself while I listened to the wife telling off her man for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you actually manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this happens everyday in Suffolk and that it's truly nothing to be concerned about, however he still had his ear bent. Unlucky guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I waved hasta la vista and wondered what my wife would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
