It was just before 5 pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were seated there talking about the recent footy, prepared for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling station in Bishops Lydeard and put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was quite distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things regrettably happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was only a short distance off from the office, we were able to find the woman without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off satisfied and less stressed. Yet another job in Somerset well done in my opinion!

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed if you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is composed of a mix of high-purity urea and deionized water (67.5%).It is certainly damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely never turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will likely bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations pretty easily.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the back of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Somerset to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.
