It was before 10 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were resting going over the recent sports results, waiting for the next job that day to arrive. Eventually we got the call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Southrope and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Lexus rental by mistake. She was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that these things happen. She had managed to get the car to a safe space and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from us, we were able to arrive at her right away. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home contented and less stressed. One more fuel drain in Hampshire well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Hampshire we are noticing more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure how to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious situation to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel may well cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances rather quickly.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container lying at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Hampshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even several drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Southrope (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of any of the common problems that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Southrope - Southrope Wrong Fuel

A man had conked out off a road in Southrope. His Jaguar motor had stopped running and he'd no idea what was faulty until eventually he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got virtually no rest the night before and that must have been the key reason why.
