It was just after 7 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and me were relaxing commenting on the football, prepared for the sixth fuel drain that day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in East Stoke and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Kia rental car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, and that these things can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance off from us, we were able to get to the woman almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home calm and less worried. One more job in Dorset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Dorset we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not understanding the way to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And most certainly never turn over the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will often cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations quite swiftly.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container in the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Dorset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in East Stoke (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to fix the typical problems that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
