It was about six pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased raining! Paul and I were relaxing there discussing the sports rankings, waiting for the sixth call of the day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Holme and put petrol in her diesel Peugeot rental in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and that such things can happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from the office, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off calm and not so stressed. One more fuel drain in Cambridgeshire done well in my books!

Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Cambridgeshire we have noticed more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course do not start the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will likely cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations fairly quickly.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir in the back of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business premises in Cambridgeshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, if we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Holme (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your car if you are stuck 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 the car. They will be able to fix any of the usual issues which may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Holme - Holme Wrong Fuel

A customer had broken down off a road in Holme. His Citroen engine had ceased operating and he'd no clue what was awry until eventually he realised he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can't believe that I didn't realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the day before and that could have been the key reason why.
