It was close to seven pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and me were seated there talking about the football, waiting around for the sixth call that day to come in. In due time we received the call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Farley Green and filled petrol in her diesel Lexus hire car by mistake. The poor lady was very affected it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a safe space and, because it was no more than a short distance from us, we could reach the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Suffolk we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And obviously take care not to crank the car - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. If you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases rather simply.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank at the back of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Farley Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to handle the usual troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
