Petrol in your diesel car or bike in High Ham? Welcome to WrongFuelSoS.com. Call us and find out how we can assist you to get you back on the road once more.

It was about 10 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not ceased pouring! Ray and I were relaxing discussing the recent footy results, waiting around for the next call for the day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in High Ham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this regrettably do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few miles away from us, we could find the woman right away. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off contented and a lot less worried. One more misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my books!

Services We Deliver:

Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed in case you have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It is certainly devastating to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be pulled into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering disastrous and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And most definitely don't start the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will likely bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations very simply.

You should know however that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir in the rear of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Somerset to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in High Ham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your automobile any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your automobile. They will be able to fix the most common troubles which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
