It was just before 9 pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were resting talking about the footy results, ready for the next job of the day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Westland Green and put petrol in her diesel Ford hire car by mistake. She was very affected by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things can happen. She was able to relocate the car into a protected space and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the motel she was lodging in. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away contented and less worried. Yet another fuel drain in Hertfordshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Experience :

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Hertfordshire we have discovered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by drivers not understanding how to use it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And absolutely never crank the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations quite expediently.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Hertfordshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Westland Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up the car. They are also able to fix the typical troubles that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
