Services We Provide:

Listed here are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hertfordshire we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers not understanding the way to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And absolutely be careful not to crank the motor - not even to move it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel may well trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances pretty simply.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Hertfordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Long Marston (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car. They are also able to take care of the most common issues which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Long Marston - Long Marston Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a perfect day golfing during the weekend and felt pleased with myself the next working day as I set out to help a young family who were away in Long Marston. They pulled over after inserting diesel into their Smart, and the car was approximately an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the girl telling her partner off for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this happens everyday in Hertfordshire and that it's truly nothing at all to worry about, even so he still had an ear bashing. Unlucky boy. At any rate, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed farewell and wondered what my missus would do to me if I made the same blunder... I'd never hear the end of it!
