It was about 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Dan and I were sitting going over the recent sports, at the ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Little Paxton and put petrol in a diesel bright yellow Volkswagen Touareg lease car. The unfortunate thing was rather agitated it seemed, stating "I still can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe area and, because it was only a few minutes away from us, we could get to the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home satisfied and not so worried. Yet another job in Cambridgeshire done well in my mind!

Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have successfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to take care of in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances fairly swiftly.
Remember that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.
Wrong Fuel in Car in PE19 Postcode - Little Paxton Misfueling
A lady had broken down on a road, Little Paxton just after having misfueled. She was crying and truly distressed as she had put £50 petrol in her diesel car. When she called us we tried to cool her as well as we could, assuring her that everything would be no problem. By the time we got to her she was no longer disrupted and was rather curious in watching our fuel drainer perform the fuel drain on her buff Mitsubishi Expo. Later on she said: "My car is akin to my child, I only recently purchased it and so it especially worried me that I had put such an abundance of wrong fuel in it. I'm gratified that it was easily repairable."
We are fully compliant and insured and thus you are aware the car is in reliable hands. Whether you are in an archaic jalopy or a brand new sports-car we can help out.
Wrong Fuel Assist Little Paxton - Wrong Fuel in Car Little Paxton
I had a terrific afternoon fishing during my holiday and felt delighted with myself the next morning as I set off to help a young family vacationing in Little Paxton. They'd broken down after adding diesel into their deep grey Toyota Highlander, and were about an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman telling her partner off for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this problem comes to pass regularly in Cambridgeshire and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, but he all the same had an ear bashing. Poor boy. At any rate, I drained the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While they drove away I shouted good bye and pondered on what her indoors would tell me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Little Paxton
I am not ever so enthusiastic about working weekends, and a week ago was the same. I had just come away from the wife and kids following a superb lunch prepared by the missus, and I was en route to sort out a fellow who filled the wrong fuel in his grey Alfa Romeo164. He was stationed in Little Paxton and so I was there almost immediately. As I pulled up behind the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I had my attention on other things and did not realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I caused any kind of harm by driving it?" I determined that generally there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also that I would personally remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible. It goes without saying that I removed the fuel from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and thus another contented client was able to carry on with his trip with no hassle. He did not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Cambridgeshire that tiny bit better to me!

A young lady working in Little Paxton contacted us after she had managed to get her wrong fueled vehicle to work. She had filled petrol in her diesel luxury Dodge Colt and, like countless before her, thought that she could just fill up her car with diesel and it would be okay. The engine was coughing and then it cut out when she came to the the front of her office. We soon started on the fuel drain after she called and had it resolved in one hour whilst she was working. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm really glad you sorted my vehicle."
