It was after 9 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were resting talking over the rugby rankings, prepared for the next fuel drain that day to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Sustead and put petrol in her diesel Vauxhall lease car. The poor lady was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the car into a protected spot and, because it was just a few miles away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home satisfied and less concerned. One more job in Norfolk done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Norfolk we are finding more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Should you find yourself in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the practical skills and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel may well trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases very simply.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business premises in Norfolk for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Sustead (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to take care of the standard problems which can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Sustead - Sustead Wrong Fuel

A week ago a customer called us right after his Nissan died in the middle of a road in Sustead. He had by accident put the incorrect fuel in his diesel vehicle and got so far as the street before having to stop. It was still in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who resides close by, arrived with him in approximately ten minutes. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your timely response, particularly at 3 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
