It was around seven pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were seated there talking about the golf, prepared for the 8th call to arrive. Finally we got the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Flixton and filled petrol in her diesel Mercedes rental car. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things sadly happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home contented and not so concerned. A job in Suffolk well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competency :

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

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do in the event that you have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid composed of a mixture of urea and deionized water (67.5%).It can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at once. And of course don't switch on the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases very easily.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank placed in the back of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Flixton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They will handle the normal troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Flixton - Flixton Wrong Fuel in Car

The other day a young man telephoned us just after his Lexus ground to a halt on a road in Flixton. He had by accident put unleaded in the diesel car and drove so far as the road before needing to halt. It was really in the early hours of the morning and our technician, who resides locally, arrived with him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again into the car. "Many thanks to you for your prompt response, particularly at 5 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
