Dan and I were resting there talking over the recent golf results, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain to come in. In due time we got a call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Gosling Green and filled petrol in a diesel Vauxhall hire car in error. The poor thing was very distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things can happen.

Services We Give:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Suffolk we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely don't crank the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to address in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can potentially cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container lying at the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Suffolk to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered 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 reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several drums in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Gosling Green (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix the usual problems which might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
