It was about five pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the recent footy rankings, ready for the seventh job that day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Allens Green and filled petrol in a diesel Chevrolet lease car in error. She was quite irritated apparently, stating "I just can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this sadly do happen. She had managed to move the car into a protected space and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from us, we could find the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and not so worried. One more fuel drain in Hertfordshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Hertfordshire we are encountering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel can easily produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Remember that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to an automobile parking spot we can access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank in the back of your garden full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Allens Green (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your car. They will be able to handle any of the most common troubles which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Allens Green - Allens Green Fuel Drain

A motorist had conked out just off a street in Allens Green. His SEAT car had ceased running and he'd no clue what was awry till he noticed he put petrol in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got very little sleep the night before and that must have been precisely why.
