Listed here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hampshire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not knowing how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And absolutely take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will likely trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases pretty swiftly.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of the garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial properties in Hampshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Woodington (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the typical troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
