It was about six pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a rainless day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting going over the recent golf rankings, ready for the seventh job to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Broadway and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi rental. She was somewhat irritated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, since it was only a few miles from the office, we could find the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home relaxed and less apprehensive. Another job in Somerset done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Competency :

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely damaging to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you started the car with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously do not switch on the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases fairly expediently.

Be aware that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in Somerset to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Fuel Removal Broadway - Broadway Wrong Fuel

I'd had a wonderful day hiking on my day off and was feeling cheerful the following working day as I set out to help a new couple vacationing in Broadway. They had broken down after inserting the wrong fuel into their Ford, and were about half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and laughed while I listened to the girl telling her hubby off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this occurs on daily basis in Somerset and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still got his ear bent. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. While they drove off I shouted bon voyage and thought about what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the same blunder... I'd never live it down!
