Our Areas of Competency :

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Hertfordshire we have found progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not knowing the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly do not start the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel will likely bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations pretty easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank at the back of the garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Hertfordshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Wigginton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to handle any of the most common problems that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
