It was about 6 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were sitting going over the weekend's football, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Quidhampton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo hire car in error. The poor thing was very troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a protected position and, as it was just a few minutes away from us, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off satisfied and not so stressed. Yet another job in Hampshire done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Offer:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hampshire we have found increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not understanding how to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you find yourself in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the technical expertise and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations quite simply.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in Hampshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Quidhampton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your car. They are also able to take care of any of the common issues which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Quidhampton - Quidhampton Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a perfect evening golfing during my day off and was feeling pleased with myself the next day as I was on the way to assist a young family who were holidaying in Quidhampton. They'd pulled over after adding the wrong fuel in their Jaguar, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you conceivably manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this problem happens on daily basis in Hampshire and that it's truly absolutely nothing to be anxious about, however he all the same had his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky boy. At any rate, I removed all of the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some right fuel. As they drove away I mouthed so long and considered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
