Listed here are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

In Somerset we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by drivers not knowing the way to work with it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And obviously take care not to start up the car - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you will probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel will cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances pretty simply.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Somerset for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Escott (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the typical problems which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Escott

Various reports:

A teenager who had only just got his licence had misfueled his Mercedes by putting unleaded in the diesel vehicle at the station in Escott. He said, "This is the third occasion I have filled up my car from the time when I paid for it and I do not know what to do." He was also afraid because his dad had only just bought him the car. He came across us on the net and so called it immediately, frightened about what he needed to do. Our man on the telephones advised him that we could be there within 45 minutes and to not start his vehicle while waiting. We did the drain on his vehicle and he said how astonished he was it was completed so swiftly and without consequence whatsoever.

Wrong Fuel Assist Escott - Escott Fuel Drain

It truly was the night shift. It was about dawn and nobody was stirring. It was pretty quiet up to now, and John and I were sitting about reading a couple of old newspapers. It was a rare peaceful hour in Somerset. It was that peaceful that the moment my mobile inevitably rang I jumped! The voice on the phone said: "I've ended my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel Toyota by mistake". I asked him to tell us where exactly the car was located and we headed out, ending up in Escott only an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the engine. He said thanks for coming so quickly. As we were going back to the depot we found two women on the side of the street who looked like they had a flat. As a result we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.
