It was close to 10 pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were resting there talking over the tennis rankings, prepared for the sixth job to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Newport and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes lease car. She was very distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that such things sadly can happen. She had managed to move the car to a protected space and, as it was only a few minutes from us, we were able to find the woman swiftly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away calm and less concerned. One more fuel drain in Dorset well done in my books!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Dorset we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from people not being aware of the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank may well produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases fairly quickly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the back of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties 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 recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.
