It was after 10 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were seated there going over the weekend's footy, at the ready for the seventh call that day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Tonwell and put petrol in her diesel BMW hire car in error. She was very affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could find her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive away contented and less apprehensive. One more job in Hertfordshire well done in my opinion!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

In Hertfordshire we are finding a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of people not being totally sure the right way to use it (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at once. And obviously take care not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol is going to cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases fairly easily.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Hertfordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Tonwell (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up the car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to fill the car. They will be able to deal with the most common issues which may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Tonwell - Tonwell Wrong Fuel Drain

Last friday a man called us soon after his Honda broke down along a street in Tonwell. He had unintentionally put the incorrect fuel in his diesel car and managed to get so far as the street before having to give up. It was yet early in the morning and our engineer, who resides nearby, got to him in approximately 15 minutes. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel once again into the car. "Genuine kudos to you for your immediate response, particularly at 6 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
