It was before 6 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were seated there talking over the recent football results, at the ready for the sixth job of the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Littleport and put petrol in a diesel Land Rover hire car in error. She was rather affected by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to move the car to a protected spot and, as it was only a few minutes from the office, we could reach the woman quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and not so concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Cambridgeshire done well in my books!

Vehicle Misfuel Littleport - Littleport Petrol in Diesel
What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a rainy Monday and I was off to help an elder sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Ford in Littleport. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and broken down along a country road on the way to see her family. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I got to the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she told me, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only just acquired it a week back right after my previous one, which I had owned for over twenty years, inevitably broke down". I finished the drain and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. What a pleasant Cambridgeshire lady!

Here are the top services we offer to our clients.
AdBlue Contamination
All around Cambridgeshire we are identifying a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the vehicle.
Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And obviously don't start up the engine - not even to move it off the pump. In case you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations rather swiftly.
Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we can access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
