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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Dorset we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people not knowing the right way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at once. And obviously do not switch on the engine - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel is likely to produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases rather expediently.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Dorset for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Winterborne Tomson (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your car. They are also able to fix any of the usual problems that might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Winterborne Tomson - Winterborne Tomson Wrong Fuel

A woman from Winterborne Tomson with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Suzuki had put £30 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She phoned us weeping and really distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and didn't know what might happen to her car . We assured her that everything would be alright and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived she was visible upset but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the kids on board."

Wrong Fuel Winterborne Tomson - Winterborne Tomson Fuel Rescue

I'd had a perfect evening cycling on my off day and felt delighted the next working day as I set off to help a new family holidaying in Winterborne Tomson. They pulled over after adding diesel in their Smart, and were about half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smiled as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you possibly be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this situation comes to pass quite frequently in Dorset and that it's in reality nothing at all to be anxious about, nevertheless he yet still got his ear bent by his missus. Poor chap. Anyhow, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I waved hasta la vista and considered what my missus would do to me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
