It was about 5 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Dan and me were relaxing commenting on the recent sports, waiting for the seventh job to arrive. Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Midsomer Norton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda hire car in error. The poor lady was rather irritated apparently, crying "I can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from us, we could find the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less concerned. One more job in Somerset done well in my mind!

We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed in the event that you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution made from a mixture of high-purity ionized water (67.5%) and urea.Adblue tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in your tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it asap. And obviously be careful not to switch on the car - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances quite easily.

You should know that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container lying at the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business premises in Somerset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a storage shed, providing we can get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Midsomer Norton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill the car. They will be able to fix the normal problems which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Midsomer Norton - Midsomer Norton Wrong Fuel Assist

I had a fantastic evening golfing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied the following morning as I headed out to assist a young couple on holiday in Midsomer Norton. They'd conked out after filling the wrong fuel into their Smart, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and laughed as I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this goes on on a regular basis in Somerset and that it is nothing to fret about, and yet he all the same got his ear bent. I felt sorry for the guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some right fuel. While they drove off I mouthed hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
