Wrong Fuel in Car Latchford - Latchford Fuel Rescue

A fairly concerned driver phoned us from the Texaco filling station at Hertfordshire to tell us that he had put petrol in to his diesel Mercedes; he wasn't really sure how he'd managed to do it.

He told us; "I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car. And the technician who came to do the fuel drain was genuinely pleasant - he did not make me look ridiculous."

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hertfordshire we have noticed a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from drivers not being aware of the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it immediately. And certainly don't crank the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In case you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases quite quickly.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container at the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we can drain it.

Out of fuel in Latchford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car. They will be able to take care of the typical troubles which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
