It was just before 9 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and me were resting talking about the weekend's tennis rankings, prepared for the next job for the day to come in. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Stalbridge Weston and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mitsubishi hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly agitated it seemed, stating "I just can't believe that I've messed up the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe spot and, seeing that it was only a few miles from our van, we could find her right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and less anxious. One more job in Dorset done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise:

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can solve any related issues.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Dorset we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations quite quickly.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir sitting at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Dorset for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Stalbridge Weston (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up the car. They are also able to handle the normal issues that can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Stalbridge Weston - Stalbridge Weston Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a great evening fishing during my day off and felt satisfied with myself the next working day as I was en route to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Stalbridge Weston. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Chevrolet, and they were roughly an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the girl telling her husband off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this occurs frequently in Dorset and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, even so he all the same had an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. In any case, I drained out the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some appropriate fuel. As they drove down the road I waved good bye and considered what my missus would do to me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
