Services We Provide:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Hampshire we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is like 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 is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously don't crank the engine - not even to shift it into a parking area. In case you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will contribute to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations rather swiftly.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Hampshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.
