It was after seven pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting there talking over the tennis results, waiting for the next call of the day to arrive. Finally we got the call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Evercreech and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Ford rental car in error. The poor lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure area and, seeing that it was just a short distance from us, we were able to reach the woman right away. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive home contented and less anxious. One more fuel drain in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you may have put Adblue into a Diesel tank? Adblue tends to be harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, leading to serious and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And certainly don't turn over the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you would in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel can trigger idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances quite expediently.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container sitting at the rear of your garden full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Somerset for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Evercreech (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your car. They will be able to fix any of the most common troubles which could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
