Our Areas of Competency :

Below are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Somerset we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not understanding the right way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly never start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty easily.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your premises containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Somerset to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced 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 tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

We can get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home.
