It was just after seven pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were seated there discussing the weekend's golf results, waiting for the 8th call that day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling station in North Walsham and filled petrol in a diesel Ford lease car. The poor lady was rather irritated apparently, stating "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected area and, because it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we could get to the woman almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less anxious. One more job in Norfolk well done in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

All around Norfolk we are finding a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly due to people not being aware of how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely do not crank the engine - not even to move it into a parking bay. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can easily produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations very quickly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank at the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Norfolk for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in North Walsham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car. They will fix the common issues which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor North Walsham - North Walsham Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer had conked out just near a street in North Walsham. His Jaguar car had stopped working and he'd no clue what was the problem till he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten very little sleep the night before and that must have been the reason.
