It was after eight pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Dan and I were relaxing there talking over the football, prepared for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Downhead and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Jaguar rental by mistake. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this often happen. She was able to get the car to a safe space and, since it was no more than a short distance from us, we could find the lady without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the motel she was living at.

Services We Offer:
We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.
AdBlue In Diesel
What to do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is certainly damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.
Phone us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can easily contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases quite quickly.
Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Have an old fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Somerset to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even several containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.
Out of Fuel Support
Out of fuel in Downhead (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill the car. They are also able to fix the normal troubles which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

"It was terrific how rapid you were in having somebody out to help me when I foolishly filled my diesel car with unleaded. Thank you so much". As you can imagine we arrived on the scene punctually and flushed the engine after draining all the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived the technician said the motorist was scowling, but was satisfied after the fuel drain.
