It was before seven pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were seated there talking about the football results, at the ready for the next fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Sarisbury and put petrol in a diesel BMW rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, also that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we could find the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living at.

Services We Provide:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Hampshire we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at once. And certainly don't turn over the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases quite easily.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to several private and commercial properties in Hampshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages.
