Our Areas of Experience :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Dorset we are noticing an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And of course don't start up the engine - not even to move it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying in the back of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Dorset for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Lydlinch (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They can also fix the typical issues which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lydlinch - Lydlinch Petrol in Diesel

A man phoned us from his residence on a road in Lydlinch. He pronounced, "My car (a Peugeot) is not running and is making terrible sounds when I turn the ignition." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would remedy the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, carried out the drain and filled it up again with fresh Diesel. He told us after that he'd be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
