Wrong Fuel Assist Piccotts End - Piccotts End Vehicle Misfuel
I had enjoyed a perfect evening golfing during my off day and felt satisfied with myself the next day as I set off to help a new couple who were vacationing in Piccotts End. They'd pulled over after inserting diesel in their Hyundai, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I showed up at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the woman berating her partner for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing happens quite frequently in Hertfordshire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, however he yet still had his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. Anyhow, I drained out all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted good bye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

AdBlue In your Fuel
In Hertfordshire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the car.
So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most definitely do not start the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.
You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Got an old fuel container placed at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial premises in Hertfordshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.
