It was just after five pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were sitting talking about the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting around for the 6th job for the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Sawbridgeworth and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda lease car. The unfortunate thing was fairly affected apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure space and, as it was just a few minutes away from us, we were able to get to the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in.

Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hertfordshire we are discovering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you discover youself to be in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will likely lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances very easily.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

A man had conked out near a street in Sawbridgeworth. His Lexus engine had stopped operating and he had no clue what was wrong till he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle."
