Our Fields of Specialties:

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have discovered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at once. And of course don't start the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances very expediently.

Be aware that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Fuel Rescue Brent Knoll - Brent Knoll Wrong Fuel

I'd had a great afternoon hiking on my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I set out to assist a new couple vacationing in Brent Knoll. They'd pulled over after filling petrol in their Land Rover, and were around half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled as I listened to the woman telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "How could you possibly be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing happens all the time in Somerset and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he in spite of everything got an earful. Poor chap. In any case, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted good bye and considered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
