Listed below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Suffolk we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of people not being aware of the right way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely take care not to start up the car - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel can bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations rather swiftly.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got an old fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Suffolk to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Out of fuel in Fakenham Magna (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home.
