Services We Give:

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated problems.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Norfolk we have identified more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of drivers being unsure of the way to use it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And absolutely don't switch on the engine - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be an important situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel will likely trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations quite expediently.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Norfolk to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, if we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Hempnall (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to take care of the usual problems that might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Hempnall

Tales from our Hempnall technicians:

I'm not necessarily overly interested in carrying out work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had only just left the wife and kids after a fantastic dinner made for us by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a gentleman after he put the wrong petrol in his Ford. He was stationed in Hempnall so it wouldn't be long before I got to him. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Thank God! I had my mind on other stuff and did not grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I caused problems by driving it?" I explained truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also I'd get the fuel drained right away. Obviously I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the correct fuel, and then yet another delighted customer could continue on their journey without any hassle. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that tends to make operating on weekends in Norfolk a little easier to me!

Vehicle Misfuel Hempnall - Hempnall Fuel Drain

This was certainly the night shift. It was about sunrise and noone was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and me and John were loafing about reading through a couple of old magazines. That was an unusual peaceful hour in Norfolk. Actually it was that relaxing that the moment the phone finally rang it made me jump! The voice said: "I only just finished my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my Mercedes in error". We got him to let us know where exactly the car was and we hit the road, reaching him in Hempnall no more than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the engine and he said many thanks for arriving so fast. As we were coming back home we found two young ladies on the side of the street who seemed like they had a flat. Accordingly we stopped to help them change it, to their delight.
