It was close to 6 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on raining! Mark and I were resting there talking about the weekend's sports rankings, ready for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. Eventually we got the call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Tarrant Gunville and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda rental car in error. She was quite agitated it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that these things can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a protected position and, seeing as it was just a few miles off from our van, we could get to her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at.

Below are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Dorset we are discovering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers not knowing the right way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And definitely never start up the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel will often contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases quite swiftly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container placed at the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Dorset to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Tarrant Gunville (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill the car. They will take care of the common issues which can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
