Our Fields of Specialties:

Below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In Cambridgeshire we are discovering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course don't start up the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases fairly easily.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Cambridgeshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Little London (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your car. They are also able to handle any of the usual problems which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Little London - Little London Fuel Drain

The other day a driver contacted us after his Fiat broke down on a road in Little London. He had mistakenly put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and was only able to drive so far as the street before having to pull up. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our technical engineer, who lives nearby, got to him in approximately ten minutes. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the car. "Many kudos to you for your immediate response, particularly at 5 a.m., I appreciate it."
