It was before 5 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were seated there talking over the recent golf, waiting for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Paston and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Renault rental. She was rather agitated apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, also that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected position and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we could get to her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Cambridgeshire well done in my books!

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

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do if you may have put Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water.Adblue is actually damaging to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be dragged into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing devastating and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Paston (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your car. They are also able to handle any of the typical problems which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Paston - Paston Fuel Removal

I'd had a great day fishing during my afternoon off and felt pleased the following morning as I set off to help a new family away in Paston. They stopped after filling the wrong fuel into their Jaguar, and they were close to half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled while I listened to the lady chastising her husband for being so silly. "How could you actually manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this happens regularly in Cambridgeshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, however he all the same had his ear bent. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted goodbye and pondered on what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the same blunder... I'd personally never ever live it down!
