It was close to eight pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were seated commenting on the weekend's tennis, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we got a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in The Thrift and put petrol in a diesel Kia hire car in error. She was quite distressed apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and much less apprehensive. One more job in Hertfordshire done well in my mind!

We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in the event that you have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water.Adblue tends to be harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, causing devastating and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And definitely be careful not to crank the car - not even to move it into a parking area. If perhaps you did start the car you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can potentially produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances quite expediently.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking spot we can reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container lying in the rear of your garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in The Thrift (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home.

"I was pleased at how rapid you people were in having somebody out to aid me when I erroneously petrol in my diesel. Thank you so much".

Wrong Fuel Assist The Thrift - The Thrift Fuel Rescue

This was the graveyard shift. It was around 2 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It had become fairly quiet up to now, and Mark and I were sitting around perusing a number of old articles. It was a rare tranquil time in Hertfordshire. It was in fact that calm that the instant the phone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the other end said: "I only just ended my overnight shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in a diesel Peugeot in error". We got him to tell us where he was located and we hit the road, arriving in The Thrift an hour or so later. The fuel was cleared from the engine and he said thank you for showing up so rapidly. As we were going back to base we noticed two women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we stopped to change it, much to their delight.
