It was after 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were relaxing there commenting on the football, at the ready for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we got the call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Brickendon and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Suzuki rental car. The poor lady was very irritated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a safe position and, as it was only a short distance off from the office, we were able to find the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off relaxed and not so concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Hertfordshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hertfordshire we have noticed increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you end up in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have the practical skills and working experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel is likely to result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases quite expediently.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Brickendon (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your automobile any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They can also deal with any of the typical issues that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Brickendon - Brickendon Fuel Drain

A guy had stopped near a road in Brickendon. His Mercedes car had ceased running and he had no clue what was faulty until eventually he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten zero sleep the evening before and that could have been precisely why.
