It was after 9 pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a dry night, it had not ceased raining! Dan and me were sitting commenting on the golf results, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Esso filling station in Floods Ferry and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia lease car. The poor lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that such things regrettably happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected area and, as it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off relaxed and not so concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire well done in my mind!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Offer:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In Cambridgeshire we have discovered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And of course take care not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would probably need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel will result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations pretty simply.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Cambridgeshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Fuel Removal Floods Ferry - Floods Ferry Wrong Fuel in Car

A gentleman contacted us from his home on a close in Floods Ferry. He explained, "My vehicle (a Chevrolet) is not starting up and is generating terrible sounds when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He said he'd be certain to inform people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
