It was after six pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a rainless evening, it had not ceased raining! Paul and me were relaxing there discussing the footy results, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Huntingdon and filled petrol in her diesel Jaguar hire car. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from our van, we were able to get to the lady swiftly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was residing in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire done well in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

In Cambridgeshire we are identifying increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not understanding how to use it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you get in this predicament don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious condition to deal with in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel is going to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Huntingdon (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and fill up the car. They will be able to fix the standard troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
