It was after ten pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were sitting there talking about the weekend's rugby, prepared for the seventh call of the day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Townsend and filled petrol in her diesel Porsche rental by mistake. She was pretty distressed apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we could find the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying at.

Fuel Rescue Townsend - Townsend Petrol in Diesel

A gentleman called us from his house on a close in Townsend. He pronounced, "My car (a Toyota) is not starting and is creating awful sounds when I turn the key." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would resolve the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the drain and filled him up once more with fresh Diesel. He said he'd be certain to educate people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out promptly.

Our Areas of Competence :

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hertfordshire we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely don't start up the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the car you would most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to deal with in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can trigger idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations fairly simply.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in Hertfordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Townsend (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They will fix any of the standard problems which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.
