It was after 8 pm on a Friday and although we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's football rankings, waiting for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Stamshaw and filled petrol in a diesel Citroen rental by mistake. The poor lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to relocate the car into a protected position and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from our van, we could find the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and much less stressed. One more job in Hampshire done well in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Provide:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Hampshire we have found a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to motorists not knowing how to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations fairly easily.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Hampshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Stamshaw (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your automobile. They can also fix any of the standard problems that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Stamshaw - Stamshaw Wrong Fuel Drain

A customer had conked out just near a road in Stamshaw. His MINI engine had stopped running and he'd no clue what was the problem till he realised he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had got virtually no rest the day before and that could have been precisely why.
