It was just before eight pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there talking about the recent rugby results, prepared for the next call of the day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Fleet and filled petrol in a diesel Land Rover hire car. She was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected space and, since it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we were able to find the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off satisfied and less anxious. A misfuel correction in Dorset done well in my mind!

Services We Offer:

Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed in the event that you have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be pulled into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to serious and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And of course be careful not to start up the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container lying at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in Dorset to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Fleet (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the standard issues which could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Fleet - Fleet Wrong Fuel Doctor

A customer had broken down near a road in Fleet. His MINI engine had ceased working and he'd no clue what was the problem until eventually he noticed he put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to get a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can not believe that I did not realise that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten virtually no rest the night before and that must have been the reason.
