It was close to ten pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were resting there going over the recent sports rankings, at the ready for the next job of the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Fiddington and put petrol in her diesel Toyota rental by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things sadly do happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from our van, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could get back to the motel she was lodging in. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home calm and a lot less stressed. A fuel drain in Somerset done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in the event that you have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made from a mixture of deionized water and urea.It is actually devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you started the car with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, causing catastrophic and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And most certainly do not start the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is going to trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations fairly simply.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in Somerset for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Run out of fuel in Fiddington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home.
