It was about 7 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not given up on raining! Paul and me were relaxing there going over the sports, waiting around for the 8th telephone call to come in. Before long we had a call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Guyhirn and filled petrol in a diesel Smart lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from where we were, we could reach the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Cambridgeshire we are identifying increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (take note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely do not turn over the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank may well result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases quite swiftly.

Be aware that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Cambridgeshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Guyhirn (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and refill the car. They will fix any of the typical issues which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
