Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Dorset we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most certainly don't crank the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol will often cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances rather simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container laying at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Dorset to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Motcombe (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill the car. They are also able to handle the most common troubles that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Motcombe - Motcombe Wrong Fuel in Car

A gentleman called us from Motcombe to state that he foolishly piped the wrong fuel into his diesel Nissan. "Shocking! How could I put petrol in my nice diesel car!" It took our engineer roughly 50 minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel out of the car. He meticulously cleaned the fuel system and then put fresh diesel in the car. The customer was happy and it hadn't cost him dealer prices to get the task properly completed.

Recent Fuel Drains in Motcombe

Common fuel drain examples in Motcombe:

I'm not necessarily overly interested in doing the job weekends, and a while back was no different. I'd just come away from the wife and kids after eating a tasty lunch cooked for us by the wife, and I was en route to sort out a gentleman after he put the wrong petrol in his Volkswagen. He was somewhere in Motcombe thus it wasn't long before I arrived with him. Just as I drove up behind the vehicle and got out he told me "Praise God! I had my mind on stuff and didn't ascertain I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought about any damage by simply running it?" I determined generally there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also that I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained immediately for him. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some correct fuel, and thus one more contented motorist was able to continue his journey with no fuss. The guy couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what makes operating on weekends in Dorset just that little bit easier to me!

Fuel Rescue Motcombe - Motcombe Vehicle Misfuel

A woman from Motcombe with her kids in her diesel Suzuki had put £45 of petrol at the Shell station. She contacted us weeping and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and did not know what would happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that all would be fine and that she would be back in action in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Specifically with the little ones on board."

Wrong Fuel Motcombe - Motcombe Vehicle Misfuel

A motorist had stopped near a road in Motcombe. His Honda engine had stopped working and he had no clue what was faulty until eventually he noticed he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I didn't realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten zero sleep the day before and that could have been why.
