It was about 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't given up on pouring! James and I were sitting talking about the rugby, waiting for the next fuel drain to come in. Finally we had the call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Ash and filled petrol in a diesel Renault lease car by mistake. She was very agitated it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things sadly happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from us, we were able to get to the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could go home to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off relaxed and a lot less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Dorset done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Specialties:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in the event that you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? Adblue is actually devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, bringing about devastating and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to start the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol will likely cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases quite swiftly.

Take note that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
