It was just before five pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were resting commenting on the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the next call of the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Budleigh and filled petrol in her diesel Suzuki rental. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, stating "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected area and, seeing as it was only a few miles off from where we were, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at.

Below are our top services we give to our customers.
AdBlue Contamination
All over Somerset we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by people not understanding the right way to to make use of (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the car.
So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And most certainly be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In case you did start the car you would likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances very easily.
Remember though that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Got an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Somerset to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

We can easily come to re-fill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) and fill your car.

Recent Fuel Drains in Budleigh
Reports from our own Budleigh staff:
We a few weeks ago had a phone call about a young man who had put the incorrect fuel in his Peugeot in Budleigh. He had ground to a halt on the street. "I was pleased at how rapid you were in sending an engineer out to assist me after I foolishly petrol in my diesel. Thank you so much". Needless to say we got there rapidly and flushed the engine after flushing all the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. The motorist was over the moon by the time we were done and he was able to drive away completely satisfied.
Petrol in Diesel Budleigh - Budleigh Fuel Drain
A customer working in Budleigh phoned us shortly after she managed to get her wrong fuelled automobile to work. She had filled petrol in her diesel MINI and, like plenty prior to her, thought that she could basically fill up her vehicle with diesel and it would be no problem. The car was spluttering and then it died when she got to the the front of her work. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it repaired in one hour while she was in the office. She came outside afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm really delighted you repaired my car."
