It was after five pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and me were relaxing going over the weekend's rugby results, prepared for the next fuel drain that day to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Culfordheath and filled petrol in a diesel Lexus lease car in error. The poor lady was quite agitated it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly do happen. She managed to get the car to a safe spot and, as it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to get to her swiftly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could return to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off calm and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Suffolk well done in my opinion!

Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Suffolk we are discovering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from people being unsure of the right way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find yourself in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the specialised competence and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can potentially bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases quite simply.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank placed in the back of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Suffolk to take care of taking away 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. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Culfordheath (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your car. They can also handle the standard issues which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
