It was after 6 pm on a Tuesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ray and I were resting talking over the recent football rankings, waiting for the 6th call that day to come in. In due time we received the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Critchells Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Peugeot lease car by mistake. She was fairly affected apparently, stating "I cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from us, we could find her rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away satisfied and a lot less concerned. One more job in Hampshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about devastating and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously do not turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will probably have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol will often trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty expediently.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Hampshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we can drain it.

Out of fuel in Critchells Green (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill the car. They can also fix the common troubles which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
