It was before 9 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were relaxing commenting on the recent football, at the ready for the 6th call to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Esso filling station in Brent Knoll and filled petrol in a diesel Hyundai lease car. She was rather troubled apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, since it was only a short distance away from us, we were able to reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off relaxed and much less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my opinion!

Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Offer:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue Contamination

What to do if you may have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not crank the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol may well result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations fairly quickly.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying at the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Somerset to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Brent Knoll (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your car. They are also able to fix any of the common problems that may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.
