It was just after 8 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Mark and I were relaxing there going over the weekend's sports results, ready for the seventh call for the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Winterborne Clenston and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Smart lease car. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe area and, as it was only a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home contented and less concerned. Yet another job in Dorset well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Dorset we have discovered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely never crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel may lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances pretty easily.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Dorset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Winterborne Clenston (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill the car. They are also able to fix any of the standard problems which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
