Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Dorset we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people not knowing the way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. If perhaps you have started the car you would most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may well trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Dorset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Farnham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up the car. They will handle the common troubles that could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Farnham - Farnham Wrong Fuel in Car

A motorist had broken down near a road in Farnham. His Renault car had ceased working and he had no idea what was the problem until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I didn't comprehend that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got no rest the evening before and that must have been the key reason why.
