It was before 10 pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a rainless day, it had not given up on raining! Mark and I were seated there discussing the weekend's golf, ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Hemp Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mitsubishi lease car in error. The poor lady was rather affected it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected position and, as it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Suffolk done well in my books!

Services We Deliver:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Suffolk we are finding a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And certainly do not turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. If perhaps you did start the car you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is going to produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container lying in the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

We are able to come to refill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.
