We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hertfordshire we are finding an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank is likely to trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations very easily.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container lying at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Hertfordshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Nup End (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill the car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to handle any of the usual troubles that can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Nup End - Nup End Wrong Fuel

A man called us from his place on a street in Nup End. He said, "My vehicle (a Volkswagen) is not running and is producing awful sounds when I turn the key." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would remedy the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there promptly, performed the drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us after that he would be certain to tell people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out promptly.
