It was before six pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were resting talking about the recent footy rankings, waiting around for the next call for the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Whepstead and filled petrol in a diesel Skoda rental in error. The poor lady was rather distressed it seemed, crying "I can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things regrettably happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a secure space and, because it was just a few miles off from the office, we could arrive at her without delay. The wrong fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home contented and not so apprehensive. Yet another job in Suffolk done well in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Suffolk we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out immediately. And obviously be careful not to start up the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to address in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel may well produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances quite expediently.

Be aware that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container lying in the rear of your premises with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Suffolk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Whepstead (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come 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 even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They can also deal with any of the common problems that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Whepstead - Whepstead Wrong Fuel Assist

A motorist had conked out just off a road in Whepstead. His Mazda car had ceased running and he had no clue what was wrong right up until he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I can not believe that I did not realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got virtually no rest the day before and that must have been precisely why.
