It was around five pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting there commenting on the football results, waiting for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Wedmore and put petrol in a diesel Suzuki lease car. The unfortunate thing was quite distressed apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to get to the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to return to the motel she was staying at. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to people not knowing how to work with it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Should you find yourself in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the technical expertise and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances fairly expediently.

Take note that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business premises in Somerset to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, if we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Wedmore (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car. They will take care of the standard issues which could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Wedmore - Wedmore Vehicle Misfuel

I enjoyed a fantastic evening golfing during the weekend and felt delighted the following working day as I was on the way to assist a new couple holidaying in Wedmore. They had conked out after adding petrol into their Skoda, and the car was roughly an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the lady chastising her spouse for being so confused. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass quite frequently in Somerset and that it's in reality nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Poor boy. In any case, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd never live it down!
