It was around 8 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were sitting there discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting around for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Old Ditch and put petrol in her diesel Fiat rental by mistake. The poor thing was pretty irritated it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, and that things like this do happen. She had managed to move the car into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to find the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the hotel she was residing at. Although we got really drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home calm and much less worried. A job in Somerset well done in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

Listed here are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed if you may have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? Adblue is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And definitely do not start up the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious issue to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will likely cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances pretty simply.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a shed, if we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Old Ditch (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your car. They will be able to fix the common issues that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Old Ditch - Old Ditch Fuel Drain

A customer living in Old Ditch contacted us after she managed to get her wrong fuelled automobile to the office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen and, like plenty before her, thought that she could just fill her tank with diesel and it would be fine. The car was chugging and then it died when she came to the entrance of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed inside 60 minutes whilst she was at the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely pleased you sorted my car."
