It was after five pm on a Monday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! James and I were sitting commenting on the recent footy rankings, waiting for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Thorpe Green and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel MINI hire car by mistake. The poor lady was rather agitated it seemed, stating "I can not believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things sadly do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we were able to get to the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Suffolk well done in my books!

Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in the event that you have put Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made from a mixture of high-purity ionized water and urea.It is definitely disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And obviously do not switch on the car - not even to move it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you will very likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations rather quickly.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and business premises in Suffolk to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a shed, if we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Thorpe Green (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They will deal with any of the usual problems which can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Thorpe Green - Thorpe Green Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man had broken down just near a street in Thorpe Green. His Ford car had ceased functioning and he had no idea what was awry right up until he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I can not believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten absolutely no sleep the evening before and that must have been the key reason why.
