It was before 9 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were seated there discussing the weekend's footy results, at the ready for the 8th call to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Ponders End and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda hire car by mistake. She was quite affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things regrettably happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, because it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer right away. The wrong fuel was drained and she could get back to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off contented and much less worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Enfield well done in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Enfield we have discovered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part due to drivers not understanding how to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Should you end up in this scenario don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the specialised knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank may well lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations rather simply.

You should know however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Enfield to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Ponders End (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Enfield Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill the car. They will be able to fix any of the usual problems that can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
