It was around 9 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and me were sitting talking over the rugby results, at the ready for the sixth telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we had a call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Cranfield and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat rental in error. The poor thing was quite irritated apparently, crying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the car into a safe space and, because it was just a few minutes away from the office, we were able to find the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive away relaxed and not so stressed. One more job in Bedfordshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Competency :

Listed below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Bedfordshire we have discovered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to people not understanding how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly do not switch on the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. If you have started the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can potentially cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases pretty easily.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Bedfordshire to deal with taking away 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 an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Cranfield (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Bedfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home.

Fuel Rescue Cranfield - Cranfield Fuel Removal

I enjoyed a wonderful evening cycling during my day off and felt cheerful the next working day as I set out to assist a young family holidaying in Cranfield. They'd pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their Volkswagen, and the car was about an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the wife telling off her spouse for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs quite frequently in Bedfordshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he still got an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. Anyways, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove off I mouthed goodbye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
