We're only a call away.

It was after seven pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and me were sitting there going over the weekend's sports results, waiting for the 6th job that day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Shingle Street and put petrol in her diesel Audi lease car by mistake. She was rather affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that these things happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing that it was only a few miles from us, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and much less anxious. A job in Suffolk well done in my mind!

Our Services:

Listed below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed if you have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? It is definitely devastating to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to start the motor - not even to shift it into a parking place. If perhaps you did start the car you would likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may well trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases pretty easily.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking bay we can reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting in the back of your premises containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Suffolk 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 legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Shingle Street (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to take care of any of the usual issues that can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
