Offered Services:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

In Cambridgeshire we have identified progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel can potentially trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances quite expediently.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Cambridgeshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Godmanchester (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your car. They are also able to handle any of the typical problems that can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
