It was about six pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and me were sitting there talking over the weekend's tennis rankings, ready for the sixth telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Hastings and put petrol in her diesel BMW hire car in error. She was rather agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, since it was only a short distance away from our van, we could reach her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could return to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and much less worried. A fuel drain in Somerset well done in my opinion!

We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? It is definitely damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, causing serious and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly don't start the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel may well contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations very easily.

Remember that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank in the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Somerset for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Hastings (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill up the car. They are also able to deal with the most common troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
