It was after five pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were seated discussing the footy, waiting for the sixth call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Horningsea and put petrol in a diesel Hyundai hire car. She was quite distressed it seemed, saying "I can not believe I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure position and, because it was just a short distance off from where we were, we were able to get to the lady without delay. The bad fuel was removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and less anxious. Another fuel drain in Cambridgeshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

Below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed in the event that you?ve put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is composed of a mix of high-purity urea and deionized water.Adblue is certainly harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases quite expediently.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank placed in the back of your premises containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Cambridgeshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Horningsea (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They are also able to take care of the typical issues that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
