It was just before ten pm on a Monday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring! Dan and I were relaxing there going over the sports, at the ready for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we got a call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Stratton and put petrol in a diesel Honda lease car by mistake. She was very agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that these things do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a secure area and, since it was only a few minutes from our van, we were able to find the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the hotel she was living in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home relaxed and less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Dorset well done in my books!

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue Contamination

In Dorset we have noticed increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not understanding how to work with it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances fairly easily.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir in the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist 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 disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Stratton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They can also fix the common issues which could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Stratton - Stratton Fuel Rescue

A customer rang us from his place on a street in Stratton. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Kia) is not starting and is producing dreadful sounds when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then imagined he would remedy the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us he would be sure to inform people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
