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

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Suffolk we have noticed increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of people not being aware of how to to make use of (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly be careful not to start the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases quite expediently.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank at the rear of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Suffolk to deal with 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. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, providing we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Saxmundham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your automobile if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car. They are also able to handle the common troubles that might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

It was in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who resides locally, arrived with him in less than 20 minutes.
