It was just before 6 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased pouring! Dan and me were resting commenting on the weekend's tennis results, prepared for the 8th job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Haymoor End and put petrol in her diesel Audi rental car by mistake. She was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the car into a protected space and, as it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we could reach her swiftly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home calm and less stressed. One more job in Somerset well done in my books!

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Somerset we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of people not knowing the way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the car.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Contact us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol will often produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances rather swiftly.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
