Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hertfordshire we are identifying more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases pretty simply.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel.

Wrong Fuel in Car Rushden - Rushden Wrong Fuel in Car

I had appreciated a fantastic afternoon cycling on my holiday and was feeling contented the next morning as I was en route to assist a new family who were on vacation in Rushden. They broken down after putting diesel into their MINI, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the wife chastising her man for turning out to be so confused. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this kind of thing takes place continuously in Hertfordshire and that it's nothing at all to fret about, nonetheless he yet still had an earful. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyway, I removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I'd never ever live it down!
