Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Dorset we have seen a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists not understanding how to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations rather quickly.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying in the back of your premises with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Dorset for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Bournemouth (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill up your car. They can also deal with any of the most common issues which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

A person phoned us from Bournemouth saying he had stupidly pumped petrol in to his diesel MG. "Unbelievable! I can't believe I put unleaded in my beautiful diesel car!"
