It was just before 6 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were seated talking over the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Hopton on Sea and filled petrol in a diesel Audi hire car by mistake. She was quite irritated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things regrettably happen. She was able to get the car to a safe spot and, because it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home calm and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Norfolk done well in my mind!

Services We Offer:
This is exactly what we do best.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All around Norfolk we have encountered more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from people not knowing the way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the automobile.
Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly don't turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank is likely to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations very easily.
Be aware though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel tank at the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Norfolk to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we can drain it for you.
Run Out of Fuel Support
Out of fuel in Hopton on Sea (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and refill your car or truck. They can also deal with the normal issues which could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
