It was before seven pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were seated there discussing the recent golf results, ready for the 6th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Mile End and filled petrol in her diesel Toyota lease car. She was very irritated apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the car into a protected position and, as it was just a few minutes from our van, we were able to get to her right away. The wrong fuel was drained so she could return to the hotel she was living at. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire done well in my books!

Our Areas of Competency :

Assisting you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Cambridgeshire we are identifying an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from people not being aware of how to work with it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And certainly take care not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances very quickly.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Mile End (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car. They will be able to deal with the common issues that can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Mile End - Mile End Vehicle Misfuel

A guy had stopped just off a road in Mile End. His Nissan engine had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was wrong right up until he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got no sleep the day before and that could have been the reason.
