It was after ten pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were seated going over the weekend's sports rankings, waiting around for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Allerford and put petrol in her diesel Ford rental. The poor thing was quite distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly do happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a protected position and, because it was only a short distance from our van, we were able to arrive at the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off contented and not so apprehensive. Another job in Somerset done well in my mind!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have noticed increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you discover youself to be in this situation don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the practical competence and working experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol will likely produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather easily.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container lying in the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Allerford (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home.

A gentleman phoned us from Allerford to state that he had stupidly piped unleaded into his diesel Toyota. "Unbelievable! How could I put the wrong fuel in my beautiful diesel car!" It took our technician approximately 50 minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel from the car. He meticulously cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put clean diesel in the vehicle. The customer was happy and it didn't cost him dealer rates to get the job professionally completed.
