It was close to ten pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not given up on raining! Mark and I were seated talking about the weekend's football, waiting around for the sixth job for the day to arrive. Before long we had the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Nash Mills and put petrol in a diesel Mazda rental car. She was quite troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to move the car into a secure spot and, as it was just a short distance from where we were, we could find the lady without delay. The wrong fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home contented and not so anxious. A job in Hertfordshire done well in my mind!

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hertfordshire we have discovered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And absolutely never switch on the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will likely produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly easily.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Hertfordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Nash Mills (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your automobile. They will take care of the typical problems that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
