This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Suffolk we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can easily bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances rather easily.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Suffolk to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Ixworth Thorpe (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to deal with any of the most common problems that might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Ixworth Thorpe - Ixworth Thorpe Fuel Rescue

It truly was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and me and Mark were loafing around reading through a couple of old newspapers. That was an uncommon tranquil moment in Suffolk. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that the moment the telephone eventually rang I leaped! The customer stated: "I ended my night shift and foolishly put petrol in a diesel Mazda by mistake". I asked him to inform us just where the car was located and we set off, reaching him in Ixworth Thorpe not as much as an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for arriving so quickly. As we were going back home we saw two young women at the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat. So we stopped to help them change it, to their delight.
