It was just after 10 pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were seated going over the recent footy rankings, prepared for the next fuel drain to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Perry Street and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Peugeot hire car in error. The poor lady was quite troubled it seemed, saying "I can not believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a safe spot and, since it was only a few miles off from the office, we could find her without delay. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and a lot less concerned. A misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Somerset we have encountered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not understanding the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to handle in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel can potentially produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances very swiftly.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container placed in the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in Somerset to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Perry Street (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your automobile. They will fix the standard troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Perry Street - Perry Street Fuel Drain

A person called us from his place on a road in Perry Street. He explained, "My vehicle (a BMW) is not starting and is generating terrible sounds when I turn the key." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel car but then believed he would fix the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with fresh Diesel. He said after that he would be sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
