Just had a quality night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on my way to help an older sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel Hyundai in Woodditton. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a backwater road on route to pay a visit to her family. I got her location punched into the Satnav and got there inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel as I had just purchased it a week back because my old car, which I'd had for about 25 years, inevitably died".

Petrol in Diesel Woodditton - Woodditton Wrong Fuel Assist
I had a fantastic day hiking during my day off and was feeling satisfied with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were on vacation in Woodditton. They had conked out after adding petrol into their Volkswagen, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I got there at their car and smirked as I heard to the gal chastising her partner for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this problem goes on everyday in Cambridgeshire and that it's really nothing to get worried about, but he still had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor lad. Anyhow, I drained out all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove down the road I shouted goodbye and thought about what my wife would say to me if ever I made the same mistake... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can solve any associated problems.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All over Cambridgeshire we are finding progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.
Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And certainly do not switch on the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will likely bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances pretty quickly.
Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages.
