It was after ten pm on a Friday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Mark and I were sitting there going over the golf rankings, waiting for the sixth call that day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Hurcott and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was rather agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this sadly can happen. She had managed to get the car into a secure area and, since it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to get to the lady almost instantly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living at.

Our Areas of Competency :

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Somerset we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to people not being aware of the way to use it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely never switch on the engine - not even to relocate it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will likely lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of your premises containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Somerset to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Hurcott (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) to fill your car. They can also deal with the standard troubles which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
