Services We Deliver:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we are encountering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from people not understanding how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And of course take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking area. In case you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important issue to handle in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol is going to result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations fairly simply.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Somerset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a garage, if we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in South Petherton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and fill your car. They can also fix any of the most common issues that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car South Petherton - South Petherton Petrol in Diesel

It was early in the day and our technical engineer, who stays close by, reached him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to get rid of the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel back in to the car.
