Petrol in your diesel car in Langton Matravers? You've come to the right place. We are here to assist you in this situatiuon and get you moving once more with our specialist wrong fuel removal services.

It was about seven pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were relaxing commenting on the recent football results, waiting around for the 8th job for the day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Langton Matravers and put petrol in a diesel Volkswagen lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was pretty troubled apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, because it was only a few minutes off from the office, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. Another job in Dorset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Dorset we have noticed an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will likely result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations quite swiftly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Dorset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Langton Matravers (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill your automobile. They can also handle any of the most common issues that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Langton Matravers - Langton Matravers Vehicle Misfuel

A guy had broken down just near a road in Langton Matravers. His Citroen engine had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was the problem right up until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten no sleep the day before and that could have been the key reason why.
