Our Areas of Experience :

Listed below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Dorset we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely do not start the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances quite expediently.

You should know though that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties in Dorset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a garage, providing we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.
