It was just before seven pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting talking over the recent football results, ready for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Danemoor Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia hire car in error. The poor lady was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe area and, since it was just a few minutes away from where we were, we could find the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and much less concerned. A misfuel correction in Norfolk well done in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Below are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Norfolk we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to people not being aware of the right way to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And definitely do not crank the engine - not even to shift it into a parking spot. If you have started the car you will likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to handle in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations rather easily.

Remember that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Norfolk for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Danemoor Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to refill your automobile. They are also able to deal with any of the usual problems which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Danemoor Green - Danemoor Green Wrong Fuel Assist

A man rang us from his place on a road in Danemoor Green. He said, "My vehicle (a Ford) is not running and is creating terrible noises when I turn the key." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would fix the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He told us that he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
