It was just before 8 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing going over the weekend's football results, ready for the 6th call to come in. Eventually we got the call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Portsmouth and put petrol in a diesel Lexus rental. She was rather troubled apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe area and, as it was only a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the hotel she was living at. Although we got really wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less stressed. A job in Hampshire well done in my books!

Offered Services:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you may have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution made from a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).It is actually harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing serious and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Contact us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations pretty easily.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Hampshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Portsmouth (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They will handle the usual problems that may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
