It was close to 9 pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were sitting there commenting on the football rankings, prepared for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Lower Layham and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel MG lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was very agitated apparently, saying "I still can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected space and, as it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady swiftly.

Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Suffolk we have identified a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you get in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the specialised skills and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can easily trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases quite quickly.

Take note that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Lower Layham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up the car. They can also handle any of the most common troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
