It was after 6 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing there commenting on the recent sports, ready for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Portsea and filled petrol in her diesel Lexus hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was quite distressed it seemed, stating "I can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe space and, as it was just a few minutes from where we were, we were able to find the lady swiftly.

Services We Give:
Listed here are our top services we offer to our customers.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All around Hampshire we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the vehicle.
So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
Call us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank is going to produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances pretty easily.
Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial properties in Hampshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we can drain it.
Run Out of Fuel Assistance
Out of fuel in Portsea (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your car. They will take care of any of the usual problems which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

We a few weeks ago received a phone call about a driver who put the wrong fuel in his Skoda in Portsea. He had broken down on the street. "It was unbelievable how fast you guys were in getting a technician out to aid me after I stupidly filled my diesel car with unleaded. Thank you ever so much". Obviously we were on-scene promptly and purged the engine after draining the unleaded from the diesel tank. When he arrived the engineer said the motorist was scowling, but was satisfied after the fuel drain.
Wrong Fuel Drain Portsea - Portsea Wrong Fuel in Car
This was most definitely what is called the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had become pretty dead thus far, and Ray and I were loafing around reading some old newspapers. That was a rare calm moment in Hampshire. Actually it was indeed that quiet that the instant the phone eventually rang it made me start! The customer stated: "I've finished my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in the diesel Dacia". I instructed him to tell us where the vehicle was located and we headed out, ending up in Portsea under an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He said thank you for showing up so fast. While we were going back home we found two ladies on the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we got out to change it, to their elation.
Fuel Rescue Portsea - Portsea Fuel Drain
Yesterday a customer contacted us soon after his Mitsubishi broke down on a street in Portsea. He had accidentally put the incorrect fuel in his diesel vehicle and was only able to get as far as the street before needing to give up. It was really in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who stays not far away, got to him in less than 10 minutes. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again into the car. "Thank you for your timely response, particularly at 1 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
