It was just after seven pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were sitting talking about the recent sports results, at the ready for the sixth call to arrive. Finally we got the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Chilworth and put petrol in her diesel Dacia rental car in error. She was very irritated apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to fret, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the car into a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was residing in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home satisfied and much less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Hampshire done well in my books!

Services Our Company Offers:

Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hampshire we are noticing an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it right away. And most definitely never start the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may well lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances pretty expediently.

Take note that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Hampshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Chilworth (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your car. They can also handle the typical troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Chilworth - Chilworth Wrong Fuel

Last monday a young man telephoned us right after his Citroen ground to a halt on a street in Chilworth. He had by accident put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle and drove as far as the road before being forced to pull over. It was really in the early hours of the day and our technical engineer, who resides close by, arrived with him in about a quarter hour. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the car. "Many thanks to you for your immediate response, particularly at 3 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
