We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hampshire we have discovered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not knowing the way to work with it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely never crank the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is going to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Hampshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Brockhurst (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill the car. They can also deal with the typical problems which could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Brockhurst, Hampshire

Wrong Fuel Doctor Brockhurst - Brockhurst Wrong Fuel

I'd had a perfect day cycling during my day off and felt delighted with myself the following day as I was on the way to aid a young family who were on vacation in Brockhurst. They'd broken down after inserting diesel in their BMW, and the car was close to an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl chastising her man for being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this goes on all the time in Hampshire and that it's nothing to get worried about, however he still got an earful by his missus. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I drained out the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While they drove down the road I waved good bye and wondered what my missus would ask me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!
