It was after 7 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were resting talking over the rugby, waiting for the seventh fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Downton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volvo rental. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, crying "I can not believe that I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that these things unfortunately happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure area and, because it was just a short distance off from the office, we were able to find the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could return to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and not so concerned. A fuel drain in Hampshire well done in my opinion!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

Wrong Fuel in your Tank - Your diesel engine filled with petrol is more troublesome than a petrol tank driven with diesel fuel. Engine may begin to cough and may die. A great deal of fumes is usually noticed as well. But no matter what it is, we are ready to get you up and running.

Water contamination of your engine - This can rev up your engine and make it thrust or stutter when you accelerate. And even worse, it leads to early rusting of your fuel system. This happens a lot with the boats. It's because people often make use of water cans to fuel the boats without draining them properly. The only solution is to drain clean your fuel tank. That's exactly what we can do for you and can even give replacement filters.

Putting AdBlue to your fuel tank - AdBlue contamination occurs when you put AdBlue in your fuel tank, usually by mistake. Vehicle owners don't have enough knowledge about AdBlue. That's precisely why they are in this problem now. AdBlue isn't a fuel additive, it's a liquid that minimizes dangerous emissions from the exhaust, and it is designed to go in a special tank reserved for the purpose. Many people have been victims of this false belief and we have resolved them quickly.

Red diesel contamination - This incident rarely happens to vehicle owners but sometimes it finds its way to a car?s tank. There are cases were filling up this fuel occur due to exhaustion or distraction. Based on AA, there are 1500 garages in UK that sell this diesel. There is indeed a possibility of it getting in to your tank. If that takes place, we know how to handle it.

Tank with old or degraded fuel - The quality of fuel will be lost if the car is on standby and has been idle for a long time. Its fuel on the tank will degrade if left unused. The engine may start and run but there will be irregularities you'll notice. Emptying out the old fuel is a service we are more than capable of doing.

Wrong Fuel Downton - Downton Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had appreciated a wonderful evening fishing during the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the next morning as I headed out to assist a new family on vacation in Downton. They had broken down after inserting petrol into their Kia, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman berating her partner for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this occurs regularly in Hampshire and that it's in reality nothing to stress about, but he still had an ear bashing by his wife. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I drained out the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved bon voyage and wondered what my wife would ask me if ever I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
