Services Our Company Offers:

Below are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Call us in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel can potentially produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases very simply.

You should know however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir at the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we can drain it.

Out of fuel in Sidcot (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your vehicle.

Petrol in Diesel Sidcot - Sidcot Wrong Fuel Assist

I had a terrific day cycling on the weekend and was feeling pleased with myself the following day as I set out to aid a new family who were on holiday in Sidcot. They pulled over after filling petrol in their Peugeot, and were roughly half an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself as I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you actually find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this occurs quite frequently in Somerset and that it is nothing to be concerned about, and yet he in spite of everything got an earful. Poor guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed so long and pondered on what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
