Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Provide:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Dorset we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers being unsure of the way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the car - not even to shift it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can certainly contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations pretty simply.

Take note however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Dorset to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can access it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Winfrith Newburgh (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They will be able to take care of any of the standard troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Winfrith Newburgh - Winfrith Newburgh Fuel Rescue

I had enjoyed a wonderful evening golfing on my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the following day as I was en route to aid a new family holidaying in Winfrith Newburgh. They had pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel in their Citroen, and the car was close to half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and smirked while I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this occurs continuously in Dorset and that it's nothing at all to fret about, however he yet still got his ear bent. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive off I waved farewell and thought about what my missus would say to me in the event that I made the exact same mistake... I would never ever live it down!
