It was around seven pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were relaxing talking over the recent golf, waiting for the sixth call that day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Bishops Sutton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Porsche rental car in error. She was somewhat agitated it seemed, saying "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a safe space and, since it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to get to her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could go home to the motel she was staying at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less concerned. One more fuel drain in Hampshire done well in my opinion!

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hampshire we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part caused by motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Should you end up in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have the technical competence and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we can reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
