It was around five pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and I were seated talking about the weekend's sports rankings, waiting around for the next job for the day to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Wickham and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel BMW rental car by mistake. She was fairly troubled apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably can happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe space and, as it was just a few minutes from where we were, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained so she could get back to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Hampshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hampshire we are discovering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Contact us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations rather expediently.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
