Our Areas of Experience :

Listed here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Norfolk we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not being totally sure how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you get in this position don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will often trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container at the back of your garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Norfolk for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Dereham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill the car. They are also able to take care of the most common troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Dereham - Dereham Wrong Fuel Drain

A man called us from his place on a street in Dereham. He explained, "My car (a Volkswagen) is not running and is producing awful noises when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would resolve the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He told us after that he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.
