It was around five pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry evening, it had not given up on raining! Paul and I were seated there going over the recent golf results, prepared for the seventh job that day to arrive. Finally we got a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Ragged Appleshaw and filled petrol in a diesel Chevrolet hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was only a short distance from our van, we could find the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she could return to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home calm and less concerned.

Services We Provide:

Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hampshire we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to attend to every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol will result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your premises with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial premises in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Ragged Appleshaw (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home.
