It was close to five pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were seated talking about the tennis, at the ready for the next call for the day to arrive. Before long we had a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP filling station in Lower Falkenham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai lease car in error. The poor lady was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to get the car to a safe area and, as it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home relaxed and less stressed. Another job in Suffolk well done in my opinion!

Vehicle Misfuel Lower Falkenham - Lower Falkenham Fuel Removal
What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Saturday and I was off to assist an old sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Land Rover in Lower Falkenham. I'd been told she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded along a backwater road en route to visit her family. I got her location plugged straight into the Satnav and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel in the car car. As I was doing the work she told me, "I'm becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel as I'd only just bought it a week ago when my previous one, which I had for more than 30 years, inevitably died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a precious Suffolk woman!

Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.
AdBlue Contamination
In Suffolk we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.
Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
Whenever you get in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel will lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases pretty easily.
Be aware that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Wrong Fuel in Car Lower Falkenham - Lower Falkenham Wrong Fuel Drain
A driver from Lower Falkenham with her little ones in her diesel Mercedes had put £50 of petrol at the BP petrol station. She called us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what might happen to her car because of it. We assured her that all would be fine and that she would be on the road in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she noticed that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the little ones on board."
