It was around seven pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were sitting talking over the weekend's golf rankings, waiting for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Mellis and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Suzuki rental by mistake. The poor thing was pretty distressed apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things regrettably happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a protected area and, as it was only a few miles from where we were, we could reach the customer without delay. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and a lot less worried. Another fuel drain in Suffolk done well in my opinion!

Fuel Rescue Mellis - Mellis Fuel Rescue

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Monday and I was on the way to assist an elder lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo in Mellis. She told us that she had left the filling station and stranded in a backwater road on the way to visit her godchildren. I punched the location into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I had only just got it a few days ago because my old one, which I had used for over thirty years, eventually broke down". I got the drain completed and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a lovely Suffolk lady!

Services We Deliver:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Suffolk we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it asap. And of course be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In case you did start the car you may likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations fairly easily.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container laying at the rear of the garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Suffolk for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Mellis (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your car. They can also handle any of the common troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
