It was just after seven pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing discussing the weekend's football results, waiting around for the sixth call that day to come in. Finally we got a call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Northam and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel BMW lease car. The unfortunate lady was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe area and, as it was just a short distance away from our van, we could reach her quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and not so concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Hampshire done well in my mind!

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in case you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? It is actually disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering serious and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it right away. And absolutely don't turn over the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases rather easily.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying at the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Hampshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Northam (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) and fill the car. They will take care of any of the common troubles that could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
