It was just before seven pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Mark and I were resting there talking about the recent rugby results, at the ready for the 8th job for the day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Buckworth and filled petrol in a diesel Porsche rental car by mistake. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to find the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less concerned. Another job in Cambridgeshire done well in my opinion!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

In Cambridgeshire we have seen more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part due to drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you end up in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important issue to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations rather expediently.

You should know that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Buckworth (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your automobile. They can also take care of any of the common issues which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Buckworth - Buckworth Fuel Drain

Last monday a young man contacted us right after his Volvo stopped along a street in Buckworth. He had by mistake put petrol in his diesel motor and drove as far as the road before being forced to pull up. It was really in the early hours of the morning and our technician, who stays nearby, reached him in about a quarter hour. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the car. "Thank you for your timely response, and in particular at 4 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
