Our Services:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Dorset we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of how to use it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And obviously don't switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases pretty easily.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank in the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in Dorset to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Red Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the normal troubles which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Red Hill - Red Hill Wrong Fuel

A man called us from his home on a road in Red Hill. He explained, "My vehicle (a Mercedes) is not starting up and is making terrible sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would resolve the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he would be sure to tell people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
