These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hampshire we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely never switch on the motor - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In case you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will often bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container placed at the rear of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Durley Street (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of any of the standard troubles which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Durley Street - Durley Street Wrong Fuel

A motorist had broken down near a road in Durley Street. His Toyota engine had stopped working and he had no idea what was faulty right up until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can not believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten very little rest the night before and that must have been the reason why.
