Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any related problems.
AdBlue In Diesel
All over Hereford we have found more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely don't switch on the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will likely bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances very easily.
Remember though that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Hereford to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we can drain it.
Run Out of Fuel Assistance
Run out of fuel in Hereford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Hereford Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will deal with the most common troubles which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel in Car Hereford - Hereford Vehicle Misfuel
I had a great day fishing during my off day and felt contented with myself the following day as I headed out to aid a new family vacationing in Hereford. They had stopped after adding petrol in their Peugeot, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the girl telling her husband off for being so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this situation comes to pass on daily basis in Hereford and that it's nothing to stress about, but he yet still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved so long and thought about what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

A young person who had only just passed his driving test had misfueled his Peugeot by getting unleaded in his diesel at the petrol station close to Hereford. He said, "This is just the second time I have filled up my vehicle from the time when I bought it and I don't know what to do." He was also afraid as his step father had only just got him the car. He located us on the web and so called us instantly, frightened about what he should do. Our person on the phones explained to him that we would be there in forty five minutes and to not touch the vehicle while waiting. We carried out the fuel drain on his car and he mentioned how surprised he was that it was addressed so swiftly and with not much complication .

A woman from Hereford with her kids in her diesel Mazda had put £45 of petrol at the Sainsburys petrol station.

We assured her that all should be ok and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our engineer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the little ones in the back."
Petrol in Diesel Hereford - Hereford Wrong Fuel Doctor
