It was before 6 pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were sitting there talking about the recent footy results, ready for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Harestock and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda lease car in error. She was somewhat distressed apparently, crying "I can not believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes away from where we were, we could reach her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away relaxed and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Hampshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Hampshire we are noticing increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not knowing the right way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at once. And certainly do not start up the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel will often bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations fairly easily.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Have a fuel container placed in the rear of your garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Hampshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Harestock (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up the car. They will take care of the standard issues which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
