Incorrect fuel in your car in Ford? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this situatiuon and get you moving again with our specialist wrong fuel removal assistance.

It was just before five pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! James and me were seated talking about the sports rankings, at the ready for the sixth telephone call to come in. In due time we had the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Ford and put petrol in her diesel Honda lease car by mistake. She was quite agitated it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to get to the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and not so apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Somerset well done in my books!

Services We Provide:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Somerset we are identifying progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists being unsure of how to work with it (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important issue to address in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases very easily.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Ford (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the common problems that might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Ford - Ford Fuel Rescue

A customer had broken down near a street in Ford. His Chevrolet car had ceased working and he'd no clue what was faulty right up until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I can not believe that I didn't know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got no rest the evening before and that could have been why.
