Our Areas of Competence :

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Dorset we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from people not being totally sure the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If you did start the car you will probably need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank is likely to contribute to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations rather expediently.

Take note that if the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container in the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Dorset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Lower Wraxall (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your car. They will handle any of the common troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lower Wraxall - Lower Wraxall Fuel Rescue

A motorist had stopped just near a road in Lower Wraxall. His Toyota motor had ceased working and he'd no idea what was awry until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can not believe that I did not know that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got absolutely no rest the night before and that must have been the reason why.

Recent Fuel Drains in Lower Wraxall

A few stories:

I'm not actually overly hot for carrying out work on weekends, and last week was no different. I'd just departed home after eating a fantastic Sunday roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a gentleman after he filled the wrong fuel in his SEAT. He was located in Lower Wraxall hence I arrived on scene very quickly. Just as I pulled up behind the car and started work he explained to me "Thank God! I stupidly had my concentration on something else and failed to grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I inflicted some harm through running it?" I stated that generally there should not be harm and also I would personally remove the wrong fuel at once for him. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and so one more content customer had the ability to carry on with his travelling with no bother. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that helps make working on Sundays in Dorset a tiny bit better for me personally!

Fuel Removal Lower Wraxall - Lower Wraxall Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer from Lower Wraxall with a full car of youngsters in her diesel SEAT had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the Texaco station. She called us weeping and very distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what would happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that the car would be okay and that she would be back in action quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the little ones on board."

Vehicle Misfuel Lower Wraxall - Lower Wraxall Petrol in Diesel

I had appreciated a fantastic day hiking on my off day and felt satisfied with myself the next working day as I headed out to assist a new family holidaying in Lower Wraxall. They conked out after adding diesel into their Porsche, and they were approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl telling her partner off for actually being so silly. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing happens continuously in Dorset and that it's nothing to worry about, and yet he yet still got his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate guy. At any rate, I drained out the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted so long and pondered on what my missus would say to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
