It was close to ten pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated commenting on the tennis rankings, ready for the seventh fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Dommett and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat hire car. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things can happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was only a short distance off from us, we could find the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was lodging at.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Somerset we have found more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most definitely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may well cause idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances rather expediently.

Remember that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container placed at the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Dommett (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your car. They can also take care of the typical troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

A motorist had broken down near a road in Dommett. His SEAT car had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was awry until he noticed he put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to get a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten no sleep the evening before and that could have been the reason why.
