Services We Provide:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Somerset we have identified progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And of course be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will often trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations very quickly.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Somerset to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Hurcott (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your car or truck. They can also fix the most common problems that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
