These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Hertfordshire we are discovering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people not being aware of how to use it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you end up in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the practical competence and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances quite simply.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir at the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, if we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Redbourn (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill the car. They can also deal with the typical problems which may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
