It was about five pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were resting talking over the recent footy rankings, at the ready for the seventh telephone call to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Enmore Green and put petrol in a diesel Citroen rental car in error. The poor lady was fairly irritated apparently, saying "I still can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe space and, as it was only a few miles away from where we were, we were able to get to the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away calm and a lot less concerned. A fuel drain in Dorset done well in my books!

Services We Offer:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

In Dorset we are noticing increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers not understanding how to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at once. And absolutely don't start the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations very simply.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container sitting in the back of your premises full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Dorset for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a shed, providing we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Enmore Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up the car. They will handle any of the most common troubles which may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Enmore Green - Enmore Green Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman called us from Enmore Green saying he had stupidly piped unleaded in his diesel Hyundai. "What a nightmare! I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my lovely diesel car!" It took the engineer roughly fifty minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel from the car. He carefully purged the fuel system and put clean diesel in the car. The customer was happy and it didn't cost him dealer rates to get the work professionally performed.
