It was before 5 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and me were resting there talking about the weekend's sports, ready for the 8th job for the day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Coldfair Green and put petrol in her diesel MINI rental car by mistake. The poor lady was very affected it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately do happen.

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Suffolk we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel can easily bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases fairly quickly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container laying in the back of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Suffolk to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Coldfair Green (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your automobile. They can also fix any of the usual issues which could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Coldfair Green - Coldfair Green Vehicle Misfuel

I appreciated a wonderful day golfing during my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the next day as I was en route to aid a new couple on vacation in Coldfair Green. They stopped after filling diesel in their Skoda, and the car was around an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the woman telling her husband off for turning out to be so confused. "How could you possibly be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this situation happens regularly in Suffolk and that it's actually nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he still got an earful. Poor guy. Anyhow, I removed all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some right fuel. While they drove off I shouted good bye and pondered on what my missus would do to me if ever I made the very same blunder... I would personally never hear the end of it!
