This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Hampshire we are identifying an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers not being aware of how to use it (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel will likely lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations fairly simply.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Hampshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a garage, assuming that we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Alverstoke (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of any of the common problems that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
