It was around 10 pm on a Monday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! James and I were relaxing commenting on the weekend's sports rankings, prepared for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in High Barnet and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Fiat rental by mistake. She was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing as it was just a few minutes off from the office, we were able to reach her swiftly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and much less worried. Another misfuel correction in Barnet done well in my opinion!

Provided Services: Our Specialties:

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Barnet we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases quite quickly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Barnet to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in High Barnet (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Barnet Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the common problems that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
