It was before seven pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated talking over the footy, at the ready for the sixth job to arrive. Finally we received a call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Stratton and put petrol in her diesel Mazda lease car in error. She was somewhat irritated apparently, stating "I can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure spot and, since it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at the woman almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. Another job in Dorset done well in my books!

Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Provide:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Dorset we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find yourself in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts have the practical expertise and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations fairly simply.

Take note that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your premises with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Dorset for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Stratton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to fix any of the normal troubles which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
