Wrong Fuel Drain Fakenham - Fakenham Fuel Rescue

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and I was en route to help an elder lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel Honda in Fakenham. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up on a country road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I got to the car and drained the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "I have been getting rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I'd only bought it a few days ago right after my previous one, which I had owned for more than 25 years, finally died". I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Norfolk woman!

Our Areas of Specialties:

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in case you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely never start up the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you would likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can produce idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations rather easily.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Norfolk to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Fakenham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car. They are also able to fix any of the normal problems that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

We a few weeks ago got a call about a businessman who had put the incorrect fuel in his Mercedes in Fakenham. He had ground to a halt on the road.

Naturally we showed up promptly and purged the engine after draining all of the petrol from the diesel tank. When he arrived our technician said the customer was raging, but was satisfied when we finished.
