It was just after 5 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were seated there talking over the recent footy rankings, waiting around for the next job to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Yarde and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was somewhat distressed apparently, crying "I just can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure area and, as it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away satisfied and less apprehensive.

Our Areas of Specialties:

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

AdBlue Contamination

All over Somerset we are finding a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And of course do not start the car - not even to shift it off the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank in the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Somerset for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Yarde (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your vehicle. They will deal with the common issues that may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
