It was after 5 pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on pouring! Dan and I were sitting talking about the tennis rankings, waiting around for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Wood End and put petrol in a diesel Mitsubishi rental car by mistake. She was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was just a few minutes from our van, we were able to find the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away satisfied and not so apprehensive. A job in Hertfordshire done well in my opinion!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Hertfordshire we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people not being totally sure the way to use it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And obviously don't switch on the car - not even to move it to a parking area. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will likely cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases very easily.

Remember however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the rear of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Hertfordshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Wood End (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to refill the car. They can also deal with any of the usual issues that might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
