Wrong fuel in your vehicle in Ivy Cross? Welcome to WrongFuelSoS.com. Call us and find out how we can assist you to get you up and running once again.

It was around 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were sitting there commenting on the golf results, prepared for the seventh call to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Ivy Cross and filled petrol in her diesel Citroen lease car. The unfortunate thing was pretty irritated apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, and also that such things sadly do happen. She was able to move the car to a secure area and, since it was no more than a few miles from the office, we were able to get to the lady almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and much less worried. One more job in Dorset done well in my books!

Services We Give:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Dorset we are encountering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel may cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances very easily.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying at the rear of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in Dorset to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a shed, provided that we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Ivy Cross (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to handle any of the most common issues that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
