Our Fields of Expertise:

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Dorset we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by people not understanding the way to to make use of (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And certainly take care not to start up the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to deal with in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations quite quickly.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Dorset to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Wrong Fuel Stourton Caundle - Stourton Caundle Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer from Stourton Caundle with a full car of little ones in her diesel Dacia had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She phoned us sobbing and genuinely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel and did not know what might happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that the vehicle would be alright and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the little ones in the back."
