AdBlue Contamination

In Hampshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not being totally sure how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In the event that you have started the car you may in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel is likely to trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases rather easily.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking bay we are able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank in the back of the garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Hampshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Lee Ground (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your car 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. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up the car. They are also able to deal with any of the common problems which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
