It was close to 6 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! James and I were seated there talking over the tennis, prepared for the 8th call of the day to come in. Before long we got a call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Southover and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Honda rental car in error. She was rather affected it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that these things can happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe space and, because it was just a few miles off from where we were, we were able to get to the woman swiftly.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Dorset we are encountering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers not being aware of how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly never switch on the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases fairly easily.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking bay we are able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Dorset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

We can help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home.
