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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hampshire we are finding a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out immediately. And certainly be careful not to start up the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to address in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol may well lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your premises full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Hampshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Leckford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They are also able to fix any of the standard troubles that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Leckford - Leckford Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman called us from his home on a close in Leckford. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Fiat) is not running and is generating dreadful noises when I turn the key." He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then believed he would resolve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he would be certain to inform people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
