It was around 8 pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were sitting talking over the sports rankings, ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Manston and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen lease car by mistake. She was quite affected it seemed, crying "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected position and, because it was just a short distance from us, we were able to get to the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Dorset done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

In Dorset we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not knowing the right way to use it (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel can easily trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases pretty easily.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank in the rear of your garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Dorset for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Manston (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to fix the usual problems that might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Manston - Manston Petrol in Diesel

Yesterday a youngster called us right after his Volkswagen died in the middle of a street in Manston. He had by mistake put the incorrect fuel in his diesel vehicle and was only able to get so far as the street before having to pull up. It was early in the morning and our technical engineer, who stays not far away, reached him in about 10 minutes. We managed to take out the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your prompt response, particularly at 1 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
