It was just after seven pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were resting there talking about the recent golf results, waiting for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we got the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Knowlton and put petrol in her diesel SEAT rental car. The unfortunate lady was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe I've ruined the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, as it was only a short distance off from where we were, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off calm and less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Dorset done well in my mind!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Dorset we have noticed more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by drivers not understanding the way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely never crank the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. If you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important condition to address in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can easily lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations pretty expediently.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your premises full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Dorset for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Knowlton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill the car. They will fix any of the common problems which may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

A gentleman called us from Knowlton saying he stupidly pumped petrol into his diesel MINI. "Shocking! I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my nice diesel car!"
