It was around 7 pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Paul and me were resting there talking about the golf rankings, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we got the call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Witnesham and filled petrol in her diesel BMW hire car. The unfortunate lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was no more than a few miles from us, we were able to find the lady right away. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was residing at. Although we got very drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive off calm and less concerned. Another job in Suffolk well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Provide:

Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated problems.

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? It is certainly damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you started the car with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering disastrous and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely never crank the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations very easily.

Take note that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Witnesham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to fix any of the most common problems that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
