It was just before 5 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing commenting on the rugby rankings, at the ready for the next telephone call for the day to come in. In due time we had the call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Newtown and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Land Rover rental in error. She was rather irritated it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, and that these things regrettably happen. She had managed to get the car to a safe spot and, because it was only a few miles away from where we were, we were able to find the customer without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and less concerned. A job in Dorset well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Dorset we have identified a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you end up in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the practical skills and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may well trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather simply.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container lying in the back of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and business premises in Dorset for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Newtown (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your vehicle. They will deal with the most common troubles which can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Newtown - Newtown Vehicle Misfuel

A man phoned us from his place on a road in Newtown. He said, "My car (a Vauxhall) is not running and is making terrible sounds when I flip the key." He confessed that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would resolve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We got there quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He told us he'd be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
