Wrong Fuel in Car Chilcombe, Dorset

Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Chilcombe

If you've put the wrong fuel in your car in Chilcombe (wrong fuel Chilcombe) we are the guys you need to call. We serve the entirety of the Chilcombe area and all surrounding areas.

It was just after ten pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were sitting going over the recent football rankings, ready for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. Finally we got a call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell filling station in Chilcombe and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda rental in error. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure area and, as it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to get to the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off relaxed and less concerned. Another misfuel correction in Dorset well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

Here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do if you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made from a mix of high-purity urea and deionized water.Adblue can be devastating to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing devastating and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously do not crank the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel can easily result in idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases very simply.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Dorset to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Chilcombe (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your automobile. They will deal with the usual issues which could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Chilcombe - Chilcombe Wrong Fuel in Car

A while back a young man telephoned us right after his MINI broke down in the middle of a road in Chilcombe. He had by accident put petrol in the diesel vehicle and drove so far as the road before having to halt. It was actually in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who lives not far away, was with him in approximately ten minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again into the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your prompt response, especially at 2 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
