It was close to eight pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry day, it had not given up on raining! James and I were seated there talking over the weekend's football, ready for the next telephone call that day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Inglesbatch and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to move the car into a protected area and, seeing that it was just a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away satisfied and not so worried. One more fuel drain in Somerset well done in my books!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

All around Somerset we are discovering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And of course never start the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you would probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may well trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances rather simply.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Somerset to deal with draining 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. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Inglesbatch (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill the car. They can also take care of any of the standard troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Inglesbatch - Inglesbatch Fuel Drain

Yesterday a youngster telephoned us right after his Citroen broke down on a road in Inglesbatch. He had by accident put petrol in the diesel motor and drove to the road before being forced to give up. It was really early in the morning and our technician, who lives locally, got to him in less than 10 minutes. We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again into the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 6 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
