It was around seven pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting there commenting on the rugby results, prepared for the next call that day to come in. Finally we got the call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Heale and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Dacia hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was rather distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to worry, and also that such things happen. She managed to get the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away relaxed and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in Somerset done well in my mind!

We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Somerset we are identifying increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to drivers not being aware of how to use it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you discover youself to be in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have the technical skills and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is going to contribute to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations quite expediently.

Take note though that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container sitting at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Heale (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your automobile. They will fix any of the usual troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Heale - Heale Vehicle Misfuel

A man had conked out just near a road in Heale. His Mitsubishi motor had stopped running and he had no clue what was wrong until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten zero sleep the day before and that must have been the reason.
