I got the drain completed and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Cambridgeshire lady!

It was before 5 pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and me were sitting there talking about the sports results, waiting for the 6th fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Peterborough and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel SEAT hire car in error. The poor thing was rather irritated it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the car into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few miles off from where we were, we were able to reach her quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off calm and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another job in Cambridgeshire done well in my opinion!

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.
AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Cambridgeshire we have discovered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.
So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And of course never turn over the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances quite simply.
Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Cambridgeshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Run out of fuel in Peterborough (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to refill the car. They can also deal with any of the normal troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Peterborough
Tales from our Peterborough staff:
We fairly recently got a call about a man who put the wrong fuel in his Fiat in Peterborough. He had conked out on the street. "It was terrific how fast you were in sending an engineer out to help me when I mistakenly unleaded in my diesel car. Thank you". Needless to say we arrived on the scene rapidly and purged the engine after draining all the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival the fuel drainer said the customer was scowling, but was satisfied after the fuel drain.

A driver who had sadly put the wrong fuel in his diesel Dacia contacted us for help at the Esso filling station in Peterborough. He had decided to fill up before continuing on to the local recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded instead of diesel which probably wasn't a wonderful way to begin to our getaway." It was absolutely no challenge whatsoever for our technician to go out and do the fuel drain. We hope the family had a good getaway.
Wrong Fuel Doctor Peterborough - Peterborough Wrong Fuel in Car
A gentleman contacted us from his place on a road in Peterborough. He explained, "My car (a Fiat) is not starting and is making terrible noises when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, performed the drain and filled him up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us after that he'd be certain to educate people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
