It was just before eight pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and me were sitting commenting on the recent golf, waiting for the seventh telephone call to arrive. Before long we had the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling station in Wothorpe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT rental by mistake. She was pretty agitated it seemed, stating "I can not believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to worry, also that such things can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, because it was only a short distance off from our van, we could get to her without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off satisfied and a lot less worried. A misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire well done in my mind!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any connected problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Cambridgeshire we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not knowing how to work with it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it to a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to address in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases quite simply.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Cambridgeshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Wothorpe (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill the car. They will take care of the standard troubles which may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
