Our Areas of Competence :

We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hampshire we are finding more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by drivers being unsure of how to use it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And absolutely be careful not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank is going to produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances fairly simply.

Be aware that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Hampshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in a shed, if we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Oakhanger (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They can also deal with the usual troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Oakhanger - Oakhanger Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a perfect day hiking during the weekend and felt delighted with myself the next morning as I set out to help a young family away in Oakhanger. They had broken down after adding petrol into their Dacia, and were close to an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the lady telling her husband off for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you actually manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this problem takes place continuously in Hampshire and that it's truly nothing at all to stress about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an earful by his wife. Poor boy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed so long and wondered what her indoors would do to me if I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Oakhanger

A few of the more typical facts we come across from the engineers in Oakhanger:

Now I'm certainly not that keen on carrying out work on weekends, and the other day was the same. I'd only just come away from home filled with a superb roast cooked for us by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a gentleman because he filled the wrong petrol in his Vauxhall. He was only in Oakhanger hence it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I drove up at the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on stuff and did not grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought about any kind of damage by driving it?" I explained that there should not be any problems and also that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained right away for him. Obviously I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the appropriate fuel, and thus another contented customer could continue his ride without the fuss. The man could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what can make operating on Sundays in Hampshire a little bit better for me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Oakhanger - Oakhanger Fuel Removal

This was the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had become quite uneventful until now, and Ray and I were sitting around looking at a couple of old magazines. It was an uncommon tranquil hour in Hampshire. Actually it was so calm that the moment the telephone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the opposite end explained: "I have only just concluded my night shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel Toyota by mistake". I told him to inform us exactly where the car was and we set off, getting to him in Oakhanger under an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the car and he said thanks a lot for getting there so rapidly. While we were going back home we found two ladies at the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat. So we pulled up to change it, much to their delight.

Fuel Drain Oakhanger - Oakhanger Fuel Drain

A guy had stopped near a road in Oakhanger. His Honda car had ceased working and he'd no clue what was the problem till he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He stated that he had got zero rest the evening before and that must have been the reason why.
