It was before 10 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's golf, at the ready for the seventh call for the day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Binley and put the wrong fuel in her diesel MG rental car. She was very affected by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, also that such things do happen. She was able to get the car into a protected area and, because it was just a few miles off from us, we were able to get to the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could return to the hotel she was staying in. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off satisfied and not so stressed. A misfuel correction in Hampshire well done in my mind!

Our service plan is totally mobile and we are able to come out irrespective of exactly where you are and have the automobile drained, cleansed and working just as before in no time - and at a reasonable price!

Our Fields of Expertise:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hampshire we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it asap. And most certainly be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol may well cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases very easily.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container sitting in the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Hampshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Binley (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They will deal with the typical troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Binley - Binley Fuel Removal

I'd had a perfect afternoon fishing on the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the next morning as I was en route to aid a young family who were away in Binley. They'd broken down after putting diesel in their Lexus, and they were about half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the woman telling her man off for being so daft. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this situation comes to pass everyday in Hampshire and that it's truly nothing to fret about, even so he still got his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate boy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove away I waved good bye and pondered on what my wife would do to me if I made the exact same mistake... I'd never ever live it down!
