It was close to ten pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not given up on raining! James and me were seated there talking about the recent golf results, waiting around for the sixth call for the day to arrive. In due time we got a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Copdock and put petrol in her diesel Ford hire car. The unfortunate lady was very distressed it seemed, saying "I just can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was only a few minutes away from our van, we were able to find her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off calm and less anxious. Yet another job in Suffolk done well in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Suffolk we are discovering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly due to motorists being unsure of how to work with it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you find yourself in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will likely trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances very simply.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in Suffolk to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Copdock (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your automobile. They will deal with any of the standard issues that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Copdock - Copdock Petrol in Diesel

Last week a customer phoned us after his Volkswagen broke down in the middle of a road in Copdock. He had unintentionally put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and drove as far as the street before needing to halt. It was still in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who resides close by, arrived with him in approximately twenty minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel back into the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, particularly at 3 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
