It was about eight pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were relaxing there talking over the recent footy results, at the ready for the 8th job of the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Hunston Green and put petrol in her diesel MINI rental car in error. She was very distressed it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, and that such things sadly can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from our van, we could arrive at her without delay. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home contented and not so concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Suffolk done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Suffolk we are noticing increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely don't crank the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is going to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases very quickly.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank sitting in the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, providing we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Hunston Green (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your car. They will be able to take care of any of the normal issues that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
