Our Areas of Competency :

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any connected issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Bedfordshire we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists being unsure of the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely never switch on the car - not even to move it into a parking bay. In case you did start the car you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is likely to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances very swiftly.

You should know however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Bedfordshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Hatch (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Bedfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill your automobile. They can also handle the usual issues that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Hatch - Hatch Fuel Rescue

A man had stopped near a road in Hatch. His Volvo car had stopped working and he'd no idea what was wrong right up until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can not believe that I didn't detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no rest the evening before and that could have been the reason why.
