Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hampshire we have seen more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by people being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to address in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having 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 can deal with both circumstances fairly quickly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, if we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Lordswood (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill the car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your car. They are also able to deal with the typical troubles which may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Lordswood - Lordswood Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a terrific day hiking on my holiday and was feeling cheerful with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a new couple who were on vacation in Lordswood. They had conked out after adding diesel in their Fiat, and were approximately an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the girl chastising her hubby for actually being so silly. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this goes on on daily basis in Hampshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he still got an earful by his wife. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyways, I extracted all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
