Our Areas of Competence :

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hampshire we have discovered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not understanding how to use it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And of course never start up the motor - not even to move it off the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to deal with in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will likely bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances quite easily.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Hampshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Timsbury (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They are also able to fix the common troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Timsbury - Timsbury Fuel Removal

Last friday a young man called us right after his Fiat stopped in the middle of a street in Timsbury. He had accidentally put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and was only able to get as far as the road before needing to halt. It was really in the early hours of the morning and our fuel drainer, who lives not far away, reached him in approximately fifteen minutes. We were able to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the car. "Thank you for your fast response, particularly at 5 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
