Our Areas of Experience :
Below are the top services we give to our customers.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All around Hertfordshire we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not understanding how to to make use of (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.
Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
Phone us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel will likely result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations very easily.
Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Have a fuel container lying at the rear of your premises containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Hertfordshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, if we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

The car was spluttering and then it cut out when she arrived at the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed in one hour whilst she was at work. She came outside when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you fixed my car."
