Our Services:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Dorset we have seen more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And most definitely don't switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will often contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances rather simply.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial premises in Dorset to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Ham Common (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your car. They will handle any of the most common troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

We managed to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Many kudos to you for your fast response, especially at 3 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
