Our Fields of Specialties:
We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.
AdBlue Contamination
Throughout Hampshire we are identifying a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.
Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
Any time you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to deal with in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is going to result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases rather swiftly.
Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally wet and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel container laying in the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties 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 dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.
Out of Fuel Service
Out of fuel in Southampton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to fill the car. They are also able to deal with the normal troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

We assured her that everything should be fine and that she would be on the road in no time at all. When we got there she was still distressed but while our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the little ones on board."
