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

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hampshire we are finding more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people not understanding the way to use it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And of course don't switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank sitting in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Long Common (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up the car. They will be able to take care of any of the usual issues which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
