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

AdBlue Contamination

In Dorset we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not understanding the way to use it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And most definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important issue to address in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will often bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations fairly easily.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Dorset for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Bettiscombe (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your automobile. They can also fix the typical issues which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
