AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Dorset we are noticing an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not knowing how to use it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.
Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely do not crank the car - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can potentially contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases quite swiftly.
Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be totally wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel tank at the back of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Dorset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.
Re-Fueling Support
Out of fuel in Longham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They will take care of any of the usual issues that can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Longham - Longham Wrong Fuel in Car
I had a wonderful evening fishing during my off day and felt delighted the next day as I headed out to help a young couple holidaying in Longham. They pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel in their Skoda, and were around an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and laughed as I heard to the girl telling her partner off for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you actually manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this problem occurs regularly in Dorset and that it's truly nothing at all to fret about, even so he yet still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. Anyway, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove off I shouted good bye and thought about what my missus would tell me if ever I made the same error... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
