It was just after 5 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and me were sitting there going over the recent tennis rankings, ready for the seventh telephone call to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Aldershot and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel MINI rental by mistake. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to get to her swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at.

Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Offer:

Below are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hampshire we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Whenever you get in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised skills and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol will likely result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances very simply.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting at the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Hampshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Aldershot (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They will fix any of the common troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
