It was just before 9 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated there commenting on the weekend's football results, ready for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in High Wych and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Porsche rental car by mistake. The poor lady was quite affected apparently, saying "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to get the car to a secure spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away contented and less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Hertfordshire well done in my mind!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in the event that you have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that is made out of a mix of ionized water and urea.Adblue is certainly disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly never turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the car you will probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important issue to take care of in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will likely contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations pretty easily.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container placed in the rear of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Hertfordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in High Wych (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to fix the usual problems that might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
