It was just before 8 pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were seated there talking over the footy, waiting around for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Great Paxton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia hire car by mistake. She was somewhat troubled apparently, saying "I still can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately do happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was just a few minutes off from the office, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off contented and a lot less stressed. Another job in Cambridgeshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel
In Cambridgeshire we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely take care not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to address in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel will likely trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances fairly expediently.
Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel container at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Cambridgeshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, if we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.
Out of Fuel Support
Run out of fuel in Great Paxton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home.

They will take care of any of the normal issues which may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Great Paxton - Great Paxton Wrong Fuel in Car
This was certainly what we call the night shift. It was about dawn and noone was around. It was fairly quiet up to now, and me and John were sitting around reading through a number of old papers. This was an uncommon tranquil time in Cambridgeshire. It was that quiet that when my mobile finally rang I jumped! The customer explained: "I just finished my overnight shift and stupidly filled petrol in a Citroen by mistake". I asked him to inform us just where the car was and we hit the road, getting to him in Great Paxton less than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the engine and he said thank you for arriving so rapidly. While we were going back to the office we saw two ladies at the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. Obviously we got out to change it, much to their delight.
