Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Cambridgeshire we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And certainly take care not to crank the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations rather quickly.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container lying at the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and business premises in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Long Meadow (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the typical problems which can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Long Meadow - Long Meadow Petrol in Diesel

A gentleman contacted us from his house on a close in Long Meadow. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Kia) is not starting and is generating very bad noises when I flip the ignition." He said that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then believed he would fix the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, did the drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He told us after that he would be certain to inform people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.
