It was around eight pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were seated there talking about the recent footy, ready for the sixth fuel drain to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Alcombe and filled petrol in a diesel Land Rover hire car in error. The poor lady was pretty irritated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to fret, and also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing as it was just a short distance from where we were, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could return to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Somerset we are finding a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is likely to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel container lying at the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Alcombe (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill the car. They will fix the typical troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Alcombe - Alcombe Wrong Fuel Drain

A week ago a motorist telephoned us after his SEAT cut out on a road in Alcombe. He had by mistake put the incorrect fuel in his diesel vehicle and drove as far as the street before having to pull up. It was yet early in the morning and our technician, who resides not far away, was with him in less than fifteen minutes. We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back into the car. "Thank you for your timely response, particularly at 5 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
