Our Areas of Experience :

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hertfordshire we have identified more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And most definitely never start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant situation to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can easily produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations pretty simply.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your premises containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Hertfordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Hogpits Bottom (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your car. They can also handle any of the usual troubles which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Hogpits Bottom - Hogpits Bottom Wrong Fuel Doctor

A person phoned us from Hogpits Bottom saying he had foolishly pumped unleaded in his diesel Volkswagen. "What a nightmare! How could I put unleaded in my nice diesel car!" It took the specialist roughly fifty minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel out of the car. He meticulously purged the fuel system and put clean fuel in the vehicle. The customer was completely satisfied and it didn't cost him car dealership prices to get the task professionally performed.

Recent Fuel Drains in Hogpits Bottom

Here are opinions and examples of fuel drains we've undertaken in Hogpits Bottom:

We completed a wrong fuel removal job on the drive of a spectacular residence in Hogpits Bottom not so long ago. "I had put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and was able to more or less reach home when my car broke down." Our fuel drainer went out, even though it was rather late at night, and performed a thorough fuel drain and purge on the Land Rover .

Wrong Fuel Assist Hogpits Bottom - Hogpits Bottom Fuel Drain

This really was the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and noone was stirring. It had been fairly dead thus far, and me and Paul were relaxing looking at a number of old newspapers. It was a rare quiet hour in Hertfordshire. It was so quiet that when my mobile ultimately rang it made me start! The person on the opposite end explained: "I only just finished my night shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a Lexus by mistake". I told him to inform us exactly where he was located and we left, ending up in Hogpits Bottom not as much as an hour later. The fuel was removed from the motor and he said thanks a lot for arriving so fast. As we were returning home we spotted two young women on the side of the road who seemed like they had a puncture. Obviously we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.

Vehicle Misfuel Hogpits Bottom - Hogpits Bottom Wrong Fuel Doctor

A customer had stopped just off a road in Hogpits Bottom. His Dacia car had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was faulty till he noticed he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can not believe that I didn't comprehend that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got very little sleep the day before and that must have been the reason why.
