This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Cambridgeshire we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And most definitely do not start up the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank can potentially trigger idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances very simply.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Cambridgeshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Gamlingay Cinques (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car. They will be able to take care of the usual issues that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Gamlingay Cinques - Gamlingay Cinques Fuel Rescue

I'd had a perfect day fishing during the weekend and felt contented with myself the following working day as I was en route to assist a young couple who were away in Gamlingay Cinques. They conked out after inserting diesel into their Citroen, and the car was roughly an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the wife telling her partner off for turning out to be so confused. "How could you actually manage to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass all the time in Cambridgeshire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, however he still had his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove off I waved so long and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally never live it down!
