It was around 6 pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing commenting on the recent rugby results, ready for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Swelling Hill and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Jaguar lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly often happen. She was able to get the car into a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and less stressed. Another job in Hampshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Competence :

Assisting you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hampshire we have identified progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by people not being aware of the right way to use it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Phone us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations pretty swiftly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying in the rear of your garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Hampshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Swelling Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix the standard problems that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Swelling Hill - Swelling Hill Wrong Fuel

A couple of days ago a driver contacted us because his Toyota ground to a halt along a street in Swelling Hill. He had mistakenly put unleaded in the diesel motor and had managed to drive so far as the street before needing to pull over. It was still in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who stays nearby, got to him in approximately twenty minutes. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again into the car. "Thank you for your timely response, especially at 6 a.m., I really appreciate it."
