It was just before ten pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it had not given up on raining! Paul and I were sitting talking over the recent golf, prepared for the seventh call of the day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Abbots Langley and put petrol in her diesel Kia lease car. The poor lady was somewhat affected it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure area and, because it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could find the customer right away. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home satisfied and much less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Hertfordshire done well in my opinion!

Services We Deliver:

Below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do in the event that you have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? It is definitely devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And definitely do not crank the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to take care of in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel can certainly result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases quite simply.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying in the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Abbots Langley (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They will fix any of the most common troubles that could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Abbots Langley - Abbots Langley Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man rang us from his place on a close in Abbots Langley. He said, "My vehicle (a Land Rover) is not running and is producing very bad sounds when I flip the key." He admitted that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then believed he would fix the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He said that he would be certain to tell people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained right away.
