It was close to 9 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were relaxing talking about the rugby, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso filling station in Whittlesey and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volvo rental car by mistake. The poor lady was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected area and, since it was only a few miles away from where we were, we were able to get to her without delay. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Although we got really wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away calm and not so stressed. Yet another job in Cambridgeshire well done in my mind!

Our Services:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do if you may have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical composed of a blend of deionized water and urea.It tends to be devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be pushed into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, leading to serious and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And of course don't crank the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations pretty easily.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Cambridgeshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Whittlesey (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and refill your car. They will be able to handle any of the standard problems that could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
