Our Areas of Specialties: Services Our Company Offers:

Listed here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Somerset we have discovered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of people not understanding the right way to work with it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the car.

Now, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And absolutely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases quite swiftly.

You should know that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container lying at the rear of the garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Periton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill the car. They will be able to handle the most common troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Periton - Periton Fuel Removal

I'd had a terrific day hiking during my off day and felt cheerful with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were on vacation in Periton. They'd conked out after putting petrol into their Smart, and the car was about an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and smiled as I heard to the gal telling her partner off for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on everyday in Somerset and that it's truly nothing at all to fret about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an earful. Unlucky chap. Anyhow, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. As they drove down the road I waved good-bye and considered what my wife would say to me in the event that I made the very same error... I would personally never hear the end of it!
