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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we are identifying more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not being aware of how to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In case you have started the car you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will likely produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances very easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel tank at the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Norfolk to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Hingham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill the car. They are also able to fix any of the common issues which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
