Listed below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hertfordshire we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly stemming from motorists not knowing how to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to take care of in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will often produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases rather simply.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank in the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Hertfordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Redbournbury (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your car. They can also take care of the most common troubles which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.


Vehicle Misfuel Redbournbury - Redbournbury Fuel Removal

A motorist had stopped off a road in Redbournbury. His Land Rover motor had stopped operating and he'd no idea what was wrong right up until he realised he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can not believe that I didn't realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got virtually no rest the evening before and that could have been the reason.

We furnish you with clean fuel at pump cost, and we will in most cases have your car corrected and able to set off in less than one hour. All contaminated fuel is discarded by us by way of a registered waste company and recycled.

It can't be nice being stuck in a vehicle contaminated with the improper fuel on the street.

He had it drained and had it working once more in thirty minutes. Highly recommended."

Vehicle Misfuel Redbournbury - Redbournbury Petrol in Diesel

A customer from Redbournbury with her kids in her diesel Vauxhall had put £20 of petrol at the petrol station. She contacted us weeping and extremely upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what could happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that all would be okay and that she would be back in action soon. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She quickly cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the kids in the back."

Petrol in Diesel Redbournbury - Redbournbury Wrong Fuel in Car

A couple weeks ago a customer phoned us right after his Skoda broke down along a road in Redbournbury. He had by accident put petrol in the diesel motor and drove to the street before having to pull up. It was still early in the morning and our technician, who stays nearby, reached him in less than a quarter hour. We managed to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back in the vehicle. "Sincere thanks to you for your timely response, especially at 3 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."
