It was close to 10 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring! James and I were sitting there discussing the weekend's tennis, at the ready for the next call of the day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Melcombe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from our van, we were able to reach her without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home contented and not so apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Somerset we have noticed an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the car.
So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And definitely never start the engine - not even to shift it into a parking area. If perhaps you have started the car you would very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases rather swiftly.
Remember that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have an old fuel container lying in the rear of the garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.
Run Out of Fuel Service
Run out of fuel in Melcombe (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They can also take care of any of the normal problems which might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Melcombe - Melcombe Wrong Fuel Drain
I'd had a wonderful evening hiking on the weekend and felt pleased the next day as I was en route to aid a young couple who were away in Melcombe. They pulled over after filling petrol in their Chevrolet, and the car was roughly an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal berating her man for being so daft. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this problem goes on everyday in Somerset and that it's truly nothing to stress about, but he yet still had his ear bent by his better half. Poor lad. In any case, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. While they drove away I shouted hasta la vista and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the very same blunder... I would under no circumstances live it down!

Recent Fuel Drains in Melcombe
Several stories:
It can't be nice breaking down in a car filled with the wrong fuel on the road. We had a customer who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (Citroen) in Melcombe had literally that difficulty: "You may already know I incorrectly put petrol in my diesel car a few days ago. I was so troubled about contaminating my fuel that I was besides myself. Fortunately I didn't need to worry as you were outstanding in resolving it."
Wrong Fuel Doctor Melcombe - Melcombe Wrong Fuel Doctor
A customer from Melcombe with her youngsters in her diesel Land Rover had put £40 of petrol at the Co Op station. She contacted us weeping and very upset as she had never wrong fuelled previously and did not know what would happen to her car . We told her that the vehicle would be ok and that she would be back up and running in no time at all. When we got there she was visible upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the kids in the back."
