Wrong Fuel in Car Hertford Heath - Hertford Heath Wrong Fuel

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! 7:30 am on a sunny Saturday and we were on the way to assist an elder sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel Peugeot in Hertford Heath. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and broken down on a country road en route to pay a visit to her family. I punched her location straight into the TomTom and arrived within an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "I am becoming quite forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car taking diesel because I'd only just got it several days ago because my other car, which I had for about 30 years, eventually died". I finished the drain and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks. What a delightful Hertfordshire woman!

Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Hertfordshire we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And definitely be careful not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to address in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank may well produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container placed at the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Hertfordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered 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 a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Run out of fuel in Hertford Heath (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They will deal with the typical problems which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
