This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Somerset we are identifying more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And certainly be careful not to start the car - not even to relocate it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the car you may probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to address in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations pretty expediently.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container in the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Somerset for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Bathwick (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They will be able to handle the normal issues that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Bathwick - Bathwick Fuel Removal

I had a perfect afternoon cycling on the weekend and was feeling pleased with myself the next working day as I set out to aid a new couple on holiday in Bathwick. They pulled over after putting petrol into their Honda, and were about an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for being so daft. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place on daily basis in Somerset and that it is nothing at all to worry about, and yet he yet still got an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyhow, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted bon voyage and thought about what my wife would do to me if ever I made the exact same error... I would personally never hear the end of it!
