It was around six pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were resting there going over the recent sports, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling station in Foxdown and put petrol in her diesel Audi hire car. The unfortunate lady was very irritated it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure area and, since it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could arrive at her quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Hampshire well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Hampshire we are identifying a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not knowing how to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And of course don't turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will likely produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations very swiftly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Hampshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Wrong Fuel Drain Foxdown - Foxdown Wrong Fuel

A lady from Foxdown with her little ones in her diesel Volkswagen had put £45 of petrol at the Shell filling station. She contacted us crying and genuinely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that the car should be ok and that she would be ready to go soon. When we got there she was still upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the youngsters in the back."
