These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Somerset we are discovering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially due to people not understanding how to work with it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely don't switch on the car - not even to move it into a parking place. In case you did start the car you may probably need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to address in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases fairly expediently.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir at the back of the garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Somerset to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a shed, provided that we can access it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Yeovil (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up the car. They will be able to deal with any of the typical troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Yeovil - Yeovil Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman rang us from his home on a street in Yeovil. He pronounced, "My car (a Renault) is not starting and is producing very bad sounds when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then thought he would remedy the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once again with untainted Diesel. He told us that he'd be sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
