It was about seven pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were seated there going over the weekend's footy results, prepared for the sixth job to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Prickwillow and put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT rental. She was fairly agitated it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things do happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe space and, as it was no more than a short distance from us, we could get to her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and much less worried. A job in Cambridgeshire well done in my opinion!

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.
AdBlue Contamination
In Cambridgeshire we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the vehicle.
Now, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking area. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol will produce idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations pretty expediently.
Take note that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management

We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.
