It was close to ten pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were resting there talking over the weekend's football rankings, ready for the next job to come in. Finally we had the call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Meesden and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mitsubishi lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was very agitated it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I've messed up the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things sadly happen. She managed to move the car into a secure position and, because it was just a few miles away from the office, we were able to find the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off contented and not so stressed. A job in Hertfordshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in the event that you have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? It is certainly harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering serious and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And certainly don't start up the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel is going to result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both situations quite quickly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank placed in the rear of your garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in Hertfordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Meesden (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to fix the standard problems which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.
