We are the service for your requirements!

It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were resting talking about the weekend's sports, waiting for the seventh call of the day to arrive. In due time we received a call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Nash Mills and put petrol in her diesel Volkswagen lease car by mistake. The poor lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, also that these things do happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was just a few miles off from the office, we could get to her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could get back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off contented and much less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Hertfordshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Expertise:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Hertfordshire we are identifying an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel may bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases rather easily.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
