Services We Deliver:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Somerset we are noticing a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And certainly do not turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can potentially produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances rather easily.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank placed at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Barlake (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to handle the normal troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
