Before long we received a phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in South Down and put petrol in her diesel Audi lease car.

Wrong Fuel in Car South Down - South Down Petrol in Diesel

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a warm Monday and we were en route to help an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel Nissan in South Down. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and was pulled up along a country lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I punched the location into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I reached the location and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing it she told me, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel since I had just purchased it a couple of days back when my former one, which I'd used for about 25 years, finally broke down". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a precious Hampshire woman!

Services Our Company Offers:

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can solve any associated problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hampshire we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not understanding the right way to use it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol may result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations fairly swiftly.

Remember though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container lying in the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Hampshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

We will get out to fill up your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home.
