Our Areas of Competency :

Here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Somerset we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by people not understanding how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely do not start up the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in fuel may well bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances pretty expediently.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container in the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Somerset to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Downside (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the standard problems that can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Downside - Downside Wrong Fuel

A week ago a youngster telephoned us because his Peugeot ground to a halt on a road in Downside. He had unintentionally put the incorrect fuel in his diesel motor and drove as far as the road before being forced to halt. It was still early in the day and our fuel drainer, who lives close by, reached him in approximately 15 minutes. We managed to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back in the car. "Genuine kudos to you for your prompt response, and in particular at 3 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
