Services We Give:

Below are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Somerset we are identifying a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the car.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most certainly do not turn over the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In cases where you did start the car you will probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to address in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations very expediently.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of the garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in Somerset to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Butcombe (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They can also handle the typical problems which might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Butcombe - Butcombe Wrong Fuel in Car

I had enjoyed a great evening fishing during my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next working day as I set out to help a young couple holidaying in Butcombe. They broken down after filling diesel into their MINI, and were approximately an hour away. I turned up at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife chastising her husband for turning out to be so foolish. "Precisely how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this goes on everyday in Somerset and that it is nothing at all to worry about, even so he still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would tell me if ever I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!
