It was just before 7 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and me were resting there talking about the weekend's golf rankings, prepared for the sixth telephone call to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Little Cambridge and put petrol in her diesel Citroen hire car by mistake. She was quite distressed it seemed, stating "I can't believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, as it was only a few minutes from the office, we could arrive at the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off satisfied and less worried. One more job in Essex well done in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Essex we have identified more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by people not understanding how to to make use of (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can certainly cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult 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 are able to solve both cases fairly simply.

Be aware that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying in the back of your premises with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Essex for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Little Cambridge (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Essex Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill the car. They will deal with the typical problems that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Little Cambridge - Little Cambridge Petrol in Diesel

A customer rang us from his house on a road in Little Cambridge. He explained, "My car (a Kia) is not starting and is generating terrible sounds when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then imagined he would remedy the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He told us that he'd be sure to advise people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it drained right away.
