It was just before seven pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were resting talking about the weekend's footy rankings, waiting around for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Before long we received a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Fengate and put petrol in her diesel Dacia hire car by mistake. The poor lady was pretty troubled it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to get to the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away relaxed and not so concerned. Another fuel drain in Cambridgeshire well done in my mind!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Cambridgeshire we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely do not crank the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is likely to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases fairly easily.

Be aware that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking bay we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Cambridgeshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a shed, providing we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Fengate (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your car or truck. They will be able to handle any of the most common issues that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Fengate - Fengate Wrong Fuel Assist

A man phoned us from his home on a road in Fengate. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Hyundai) is not running and is producing dreadful noises when I flip the key." He said that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would solve the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We got there promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He told us after that he would be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
