To be honest, when he initially phoned us he said he'd shop around, but he phoned us back before long because our price and on-scene times were the most desirable.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Cambridgeshire we have identified a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (take note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the car.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And obviously don't start the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can potentially bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases fairly easily.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting at the rear of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Harlton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and refill your car or truck. They are also able to handle the usual problems which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel Harlton - Harlton Vehicle Misfuel

A person phoned us from Harlton saying he had foolishly piped petrol in his diesel Mercedes. "What a nightmare! I can't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car!" It only took our technician around fifty minutes to fully drain the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. He meticulously purged the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put fresh diesel in the car. The customer was completely satisfied and it hadn't cost him dealership rates to get the work professionally done.

Testimonies from our own Harlton mechanics:

We had a call about a driver who put the incorrect fuel in his Nissan in Harlton. He had ground to a halt on the road. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the dilemma till we stopped working. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it functioning again. I was impressed by both your speed and your pricing". Of course we appeared rapidly and purged the engine after draining all of the unleaded from the diesel tank. The driver was pleased as punch by the time we were done and he went away happy.

Wrong Fuel Drain Harlton - Harlton Wrong Fuel in Car

This was certainly an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 3:30am and noone was about. It was quite quiet until now, and me and Mark were relaxing looking at a number of old papers. It was a rare calm moment in Cambridgeshire. Actually it was indeed so peaceful that the instant my mobile rang it made me jump! The customer stated: "I've only just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in the Porsche". I told him to inform us where exactly he was and we set off, arriving in Harlton not as much as half an hour later. The fuel was removed from the car. He thanked us for coming so fast. While we were returning home we saw two ladies on the side of the highway who seemed like they suffered a puncture. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Harlton - Harlton Wrong Fuel Drain

A while back a gentleman phoned us just after his Mazda stopped working in the middle of a road in Harlton. He had unintentionally put the wrong fuel in his diesel motor and drove to the street before being forced to stop. It was really early in the day and our technician, who stays locally, reached him in approximately fifteen minutes. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the car. "Thank you for your fast response, especially at 5 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
