Mark and I were sitting there talking over the recent sports results, waiting for the 8th call that day to arrive. Before long we received a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Peterborough and put the wrong fuel in a diesel BMW rental in error. The poor thing was pretty affected it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and that such things regrettably can happen.

Our Areas of Competency :
Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated problems.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Cambridgeshire we are identifying a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not being aware of the way to use it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And definitely do not turn over the motor - not even to move it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you will likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to take care of in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank is likely to result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations fairly simply.
Remember though that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel tank placed in the back of your premises full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business 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 dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.
Out of Fuel Services
Out of fuel in Peterborough (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) and refill your automobile. They can also handle the typical problems that could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

I had enjoyed a great afternoon golfing during my off day and felt contented the following working day as I headed out to help a new family vacationing in Peterborough. They had conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their Hyundai, and the car was close to an hour away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for being so silly. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs everyday in Cambridgeshire and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, nonetheless he yet still had an earful. I felt sorry for the lad. In any case, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed good bye and considered what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the same error... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
