Here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have encountered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to people not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our experts have the specialised competence and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will likely trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations fairly simply.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Vehicle Misfuel Lympsham - Lympsham Petrol in Diesel

I had enjoyed a great afternoon golfing during my holiday and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I set out to help a new family who were on vacation in Lympsham. They broken down after inserting diesel in their Ford, and were roughly half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the lady telling her hubby off for being so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this occurs constantly in Somerset and that it's really absolutely nothing to worry about, nevertheless he still had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the exact same error... I would personally never live it down!
