It was after five pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were resting talking over the weekend's football, waiting for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Wick and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi lease car. The poor lady was fairly distressed it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few miles from the office, we were able to find the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and not so anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in the event that you have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made from a mix of deionized water (67.5%) and urea.Adblue is certainly harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the event that you find yourself in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the practical competence and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will likely cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances quite simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to an automobile parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Somerset to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Wick (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to deal with the common problems which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Wick - Wick Fuel Rescue

A customer called us from his house on a road in Wick. He said, "My car (a Hyundai) is not starting and is generating very bad noises when I flip the ignition." He said that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then thought he would solve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once again with untainted Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to advise people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
