It was just before 6 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were relaxing commenting on the tennis, ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Great Saxham and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Chevrolet rental car in error. She was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe position and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at her right away.

Listed here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Suffolk we have noticed an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations quite expediently.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
