This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hertfordshire we have encountered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of how to work with it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly never switch on the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you would very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can certainly bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations rather simply.

Take note though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank laying in the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Letchworth (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your car. They are also able to fix the typical troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.


Fuel Drain Letchworth - Letchworth Wrong Fuel Doctor

A person rang us from his house on a street in Letchworth. He explained, "My vehicle (a Nissan) is not running and is generating terrible sounds when I turn the key." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there promptly, did the drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He said he would be certain to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it drained promptly.


Recent Fuel Drains in Letchworth

Several stories:

It must be horrible grinding to a halt in a automobile contaminated with the wrong fuel in the middle of the road. Our most recent customer who filled up her tank with the wrong fuel (Volkswagen) in Letchworth had precisely that type of problem: "Obviously I foolishly put unleaded in my diesel car a few days ago. I was so stressed about my error that I was besides myself. Fortunately I shouldn't have concerned myself seeing that you were exceptional in dealing with the problem."

Wrong Fuel Drain Letchworth - Letchworth Wrong Fuel in Car

This was most definitely what we call the night shift. It was close to 2:30am and almost noone was about. It had become fairly quiet so far, and me and Ryan were relaxing reading through a few old magazines. It was a rare restful time in Hertfordshire. Actually it was in fact so calm that when my mobile ultimately rang I leaped! The person explained: "I have finished my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my Mazda in error". We instructed him to tell us exactly where he was located and we left, arriving in Letchworth only half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for showing up so quickly. As we were heading back home we spotted two women at the edge of the road who looked like they had a flat tyre. So we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.

Fuel Removal Letchworth - Letchworth Wrong Fuel Doctor

I'd had a great day hiking during my day off and felt delighted the following day as I headed out to help a new couple vacationing in Letchworth. They had conked out after filling petrol in their Renault, and the car was close to half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked as I heard to the gal telling her husband off for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you actually be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this problem happens on a regular basis in Hertfordshire and that it's nothing to get worried about, but he still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate boy. Anyway, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed goodbye and thought about what my missus would ask me if ever I made the same error... I'd never ever live it down!
