Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

In Hertfordshire we have identified a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers being unsure of how to use it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly don't switch on the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances quite easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying in the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Hertfordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Wrong Fuel Assist Patient End - Patient End Wrong Fuel Assist

I had appreciated a perfect afternoon golfing during my afternoon off and felt delighted the next day as I was on the way to help a young couple who were holidaying in Patient End. They had stopped after filling petrol in their Honda, and were roughly an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled while I heard to the woman telling off her partner for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this happens regularly in Hertfordshire and that it's nothing at all to worry about, nevertheless he still had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor guy. Anyhow, I drained out all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed goodbye and thought about what my wife would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
