It was around eight pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were resting talking over the recent footy rankings, ready for the seventh telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Shell filling station in Broadway and filled petrol in her diesel Nissan rental by mistake. She was very agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to fret, plus that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to get the car to a protected position and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from us, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could get back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off contented and not so anxious. Another job in Somerset done well in my mind!

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Somerset we are noticing more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course be careful not to start up the motor - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases fairly simply.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container in the back of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Broadway (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your automobile. They are also able to take care of any of the normal problems which may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Broadway - Broadway Fuel Rescue

A guy had stopped near a street in Broadway. His Honda motor had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was wrong till he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not comprehend that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got no rest the night before and that must have been the key reason why.
