We will come to refill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up the car. They are also able to deal with the common problems which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Hampshire we are identifying an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And absolutely do not switch on the car - not even to shift it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Any time you end up in this position don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the practical competence and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.
