It was just after 9 pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were resting talking over the recent golf rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Therfield and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi lease car in error. She was quite agitated it seemed, crying "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!"

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hertfordshire we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not understanding the way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you end up in this scenario don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the technical competence and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel is going to result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations pretty simply.

Take note that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to many private and business premises in Hertfordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Fuel Drain Therfield - Therfield Wrong Fuel

I enjoyed a fantastic evening golfing on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a young couple holidaying in Therfield. They had pulled over after putting diesel into their MG, and were about an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the lady berating her man for being so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this happens regularly in Hertfordshire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove off I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would never ever live it down!
