It was close to 5 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting there commenting on the golf, ready for the 6th fuel drain for the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP filling station in Lillington and filled petrol in her diesel Jaguar rental in error. The poor thing was somewhat irritated apparently, saying "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a protected area and, as it was only a short distance from our van, we could find the lady almost instantly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less concerned. Yet another job in Dorset done well in my books!

Our Fields of Specialties:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Dorset we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases quite simply.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank in the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Dorset for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Lillington (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the common issues which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Lillington - Lillington Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman rang us from his residence on a street in Lillington. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Lexus) is not running and is creating awful noises when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle however thought he would solve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, did the drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel. He said he'd be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
