Our Areas of Expertise:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

In Dorset we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not knowing how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to deal with in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel is going to cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases very easily.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Dorset to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Fuel Drain Stratton - Stratton Wrong Fuel

A customer called us from his home on a street in Stratton. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Audi) is not starting up and is making dreadful noises when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would solve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there quickly, carried out the drain and filled him up again with fresh Diesel. He said he would be sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
