Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely do not turn over the car - not even to shift it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will likely lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases pretty expediently.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank sitting in the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Norfolk to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Cromer (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They will fix the standard problems which can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Cromer - Cromer Wrong Fuel

A customer had conked out near a road in Cromer. His Kia car had stopped running and he had no clue what was awry till he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten very little rest the day before and that must have been the key reason why.
