Services We Give:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Hampshire we are identifying increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most definitely do not start up the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can potentially bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations rather swiftly.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages.
