Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have noticed more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to people not understanding how to use it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out asap. And certainly don't turn over the engine - not even to shift it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the car you may likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances very easily.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Chelwood (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your automobile. They will handle any of the common problems which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Chelwood - Chelwood Fuel Rescue

A gentleman called us from Chelwood saying he foolishly pumped petrol in to his diesel Nissan. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put unleaded in my nice diesel car!" It only took the technician roughly 50 minutes to fully drain the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. He completely flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put fresh fuel in the car. The customer was very pleased and it didn't cost him dealer prices to get the job professionally done.
