It was around eight pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were sitting there talking over the recent football, waiting for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Chettle and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault rental car in error. The poor lady was very distressed apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing that it was just a few miles from us, we were able to get to the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home contented and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Dorset done well in my opinion!

A customer had conked out on a street, Chettle just after having put the wrong fuel in her car. She was in tears and fairly troubled as she had put £55 petrol in her diesel car. When she phoned us we attempted to calm her as well as we could, telling her that all would be ok. By the time we got to her she was not troubled any more and was very intrigued in watching our technician perform the fuel drain on her Volkswagen.

Services We Offer:
We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All over Dorset we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being totally sure how to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the automobile.
Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Contact us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations very easily.
Be aware that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out.

Fuel Removal Chettle - Chettle Fuel Rescue
I had enjoyed a great day fishing during my holiday and felt cheerful the next morning as I headed out to aid a new couple on holiday in Chettle. They pulled over after adding petrol in their Citroen, and they were approximately an hour away. I arrived at their car and smiled while I listened to the wife chastising her hubby for actually being so daft. "Just how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this problem comes to pass on a regular basis in Dorset and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to worry about, nonetheless he yet still had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted bon voyage and thought about what my missus would say to me in the event that I made the same blunder... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Chettle
A few of the usual things we get from our employees in Chettle:
I am not too hot for working Sundays, and the other day was the same. I'd just come away from home following a magnificent lunch made for me by the wife, and I was on my way to help a fellow because he put the wrong fuel in his Audi. He was situated in Chettle thus I arrived there quickly. As I pulled up behind the vehicle and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my concentration on something else and did not perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted some problems through starting it?" I revealed that generally there shouldn't be damage and that I would personally remove the contaminated fuel immediately. It goes without saying that I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and another pleased customer had the ability to carry on with his travelling without any subsequent bother. The guy did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what tends to make working on weekends in Dorset that little less painful for me!
Vehicle Misfuel Chettle - Chettle Wrong Fuel Doctor
This was what is called the graveyard shift. It was roughly sunrise and hardly anyone was about. It had become pretty dead until now, and Brian and I were loafing about looking through several old newspapers. It was an unusual restful hour in Dorset. Actually it was so calm that when the phone finally rang I jumped! The voice told me: "I have only just finished my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a Suzuki by mistake". I instructed him to tell us where exactly he was located and we set off, getting to him in Chettle under an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he said thank you for showing up so fast. While we were heading back home we noticed two women on the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we got out to change it, much to their delight.
