It was before five pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not ceased pouring! Brian and I were sitting discussing the tennis, waiting around for the next job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Watford and filled petrol in a diesel Hyundai hire car. The unfortunate lady was quite distressed it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things regrettably can happen.

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

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed if you may have put Adblue in your Diesel tank? Adblue tends to be harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you started the car with Adblue in the diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be injected into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Call us in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to address in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances pretty simply.

Take note that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Wrong Fuel Doctor Watford - Watford Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon cycling during my day off and was feeling contented with myself the following working day as I was en route to assist a new family who were on vacation in Watford. They pulled over after inserting petrol in their MG, and the car was about an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled to myself while I listened to the gal telling her man off for turning out to be so confused. "Exactly how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this happens constantly in Hertfordshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he all the same got his ear bent. Unfortunate boy. In any case, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive off I waved good-bye and considered what my wife would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I'd never live it down!
