It was before 6 pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were resting there discussing the weekend's sports results, ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Pinksmoor and put petrol in a diesel Mazda hire car. The poor lady was rather affected by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to fret, and that things like this unfortunately do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a safe area and, as it was only a few minutes from us, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and a lot less stressed. A fuel drain in Somerset well done in my mind!

Our Services:

Below are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed in case you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made out of a mixture of urea and ionized water (67.5%).It is actually damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And of course don't start the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. If you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to handle in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel may well cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases pretty expediently.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Somerset to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Pinksmoor (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and refill the car. They will be able to take care of the typical problems which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Pinksmoor - Pinksmoor Petrol in Diesel

I had a perfect day hiking on the weekend and was feeling cheerful the following morning as I set off to help a young couple who were on vacation in Pinksmoor. They pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel in their Lexus, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I got there at their position and laughed as I heard to the wife telling off her husband for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this comes to pass frequently in Somerset and that it's nothing to get worried about, but he still had an ear bashing by his wife. I felt sorry for the boy. At any rate, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. While they drove off I shouted farewell and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd never ever live it down!
