It was before 10 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and me were sitting going over the weekend's football rankings, prepared for the 6th job to arrive. In due time we got a call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Oxlode and put petrol in her diesel Vauxhall rental in error. She was rather irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably happen. She was able to get the car into a safe space and, because it was just a few miles from our van, we were able to arrive at the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off calm and less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Cambridgeshire we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not understanding how to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not start the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant condition to take care of in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank is going to lead to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather simply.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container lying in the rear of your garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Cambridgeshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Oxlode (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your vehicle if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill the car. They will deal with the typical issues which can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
