Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hampshire we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And absolutely take care not to start up the car - not even to move it to a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations pretty easily.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir in the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Hampshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a shed, if we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Hounsdown (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your automobile. They will take care of any of the normal problems which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel Hounsdown - Hounsdown Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a perfect afternoon golfing during my afternoon off and was feeling contented with myself the following working day as I was on the way to aid a new family away in Hounsdown. They'd conked out after adding petrol in their Audi, and the car was around half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the girl telling her hubby off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this situation takes place everyday in Hampshire and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, but he still got his ear bent. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove off I mouthed good-bye and thought about what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
