Our Areas of Specialties:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed in the event that you have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made out of a blend of high-purity ionized water (67.5%) and urea.Adblue tends to be disastrous to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be pushed into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously be careful not to switch on the car - not even to move it into a parking place. In cases where you have started the car you will most likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can potentially lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases very quickly.

You should know that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of the garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a garage, providing we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of fuel in Redbourn (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and fill up your car.
