It was about 8 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's golf, at the ready for the sixth job for the day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Biddisham and put petrol in a diesel Mazda rental car. She was somewhat troubled apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, also that such things do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing as it was just a few miles from where we were, we could get to the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home contented and much less worried. Another misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my books!

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Somerset we have identified progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to people not knowing the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you end up in this situation don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the technical know-how and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container at the back of your garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business premises in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Wrong Fuel Assist Biddisham - Biddisham Wrong Fuel Doctor

I'd had a wonderful afternoon cycling on my day off and felt cheerful with myself the next day as I was on the way to help a young family on holiday in Biddisham. They'd conked out after filling the wrong fuel into their Jaguar, and the car was close to an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the wife telling her hubby off for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this takes place constantly in Somerset and that it's nothing to fret about, but he still had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. In any case, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching as they drove off I waved hasta la vista and considered what my missus would ask me if ever I made the same error... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
