Our Areas of Competence :

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hertfordshire we are noticing progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it asap. And absolutely don't crank the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations very easily.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container lying in the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Hertfordshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Latchford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your car. They are also able to fix any of the usual issues that could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel Latchford - Latchford Wrong Fuel Assist

I'd had a fantastic afternoon golfing during my holiday and felt pleased the following day as I headed out to aid a young family who were holidaying in Latchford. They'd conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their Smart, and the car was approximately an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and smirked while I listened to the wife telling her husband off for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this goes on constantly in Hertfordshire and that it's in reality nothing at all to be concerned about, but he all the same had an earful. Unlucky guy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good-bye and considered what my wife would do to me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Latchford

Testimonies from our own Latchford technicians:

We performed a wrong fuel removal job outside a beautiful residential home in Latchford a few weeks ago. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and managed to nearly get home when my car stopped." Our technician went out, despite the fact that it was quite late at night, and performed a standard fuel drain and purge on the Skoda .

Wrong Fuel Assist Latchford - Latchford Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer from Latchford with her youngsters in her diesel Honda had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Texaco service station. She contacted us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and did not know what would happen to her car . We reassured her that everything would be fine and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the youngsters in the back."

Vehicle Misfuel Latchford - Latchford Wrong Fuel Doctor

A guy had stopped just near a road in Latchford. His Volkswagen car had ceased working and he had no idea what was faulty till he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had got no rest the night before and that could have been the key reason why.
