It was close to 6 pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and me were seated there commenting on the weekend's football rankings, waiting for the seventh telephone call to come in. Inevitably we got a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling station in Redlane and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volkswagen lease car. The poor thing was somewhat irritated apparently, stating "I just can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could get back to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away contented and much less stressed. One more job in Somerset done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have seen progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not knowing the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank is going to bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases pretty swiftly.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in Somerset for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Redlane (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will deal with the typical issues that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Redlane - Redlane Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a terrific evening cycling during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the following day as I set out to aid a new family on vacation in Redlane. They'd stopped after putting petrol into their Chevrolet, and they were roughly an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the lady chastising her husband for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this kind of thing goes on continuously in Somerset and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some correct fuel. While they drove off I shouted goodbye and wondered what my wife would do to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!
