It was just after 10 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry night, it had not given up on pouring! Dan and I were sitting there talking about the recent rugby, ready for the next telephone call to come in. Inevitably we received a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Flax Bourton and put petrol in a diesel Fiat hire car by mistake. She was rather distressed it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this often happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure position and, as it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could reach the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could return to the Travelodge she was living at. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and not so anxious. Another misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel
All over Somerset we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.
So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And definitely be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to move it from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can potentially trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations very easily.
You should know that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel tank in the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Somerset to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, as long as we can access it, we can empty it for you.
Run Out of Fuel Service
Run out of fuel in Flax Bourton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with any of the normal problems which could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Flax Bourton - Flax Bourton Fuel Drain
A woman from Flax Bourton with a full car of kids in her diesel Citroen had put £42 of petrol at the BP station. She called us crying and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and didn't know what could happen to her car because of it. We assured her that the vehicle should be alright and that she would be back on the road in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the little ones on board."
