It was about five pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting there discussing the weekend's golf results, at the ready for the seventh call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Holly Brook and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Ford rental car. She was quite irritated apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe area and, because it was just a few minutes away from us, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off contented and a lot less worried. A job in Somerset well done in my mind!

Services We Deliver:

Here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Somerset we have encountered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances very easily.

Remember that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a shed, providing we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Holly Brook (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the standard issues that may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
