Our Areas of Competence :

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In Cambridgeshire we have found increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel is going to produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases pretty quickly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking spot we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Peterborough (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They can also fix any of the normal problems which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Assist Peterborough - Peterborough Wrong Fuel Drain

A man called us from his home on a street in Peterborough. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Nissan) is not starting up and is producing terrible sounds when I turn the key." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We got there quickly, performed the drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel. He told us after that he'd be sure to inform people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.


Recent Fuel Drains in Peterborough

Tales from our Peterborough team:

We performed a wrong fuel removal job on the drive of a lovely residential home in Peterborough recently. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to virtually arrive at home when my car stopped." Our fuel drainer went out, even though it was rather late at night, and did a standard fuel drain and cleanse on the Toyota to everyone's satisfaction.

Fuel Rescue Peterborough - Peterborough Wrong Fuel Assist

This was the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful until now, and me and Ryan were sitting around perusing several old papers. That was an unusual tranquil moment in Cambridgeshire. It was so peaceful that the moment the phone eventually rang it made me start! The person on the opposite end said: "I have only just concluded my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in a diesel Mazda in error". We asked him to inform us where he was and we left, reaching him in Peterborough only an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thanks a lot for coming so quickly. As we were heading back home we noticed two women at the edge of the road who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled up and helped them change it, to their elation.

Last friday a gentleman called us soon after his Audi stopped in the middle of a road in Peterborough. He had accidentally put the wrong fuel in the diesel motor and got as far as the street before having to pull up. It was early in the morning and our technician, who resides nearby, got to him in approximately 20 minutes. We were able to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in the vehicle. "Thank you for your prompt response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I appreciate it."
