Our Areas of Expertise:

Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Cambridgeshire we have noticed a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not knowing how to use it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to start the car - not even to relocate it into a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to handle in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Cambridgeshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Childerley Gate (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your automobile. They will handle any of the normal issues which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.
