It was about eight pm on a Friday and although we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and I were sitting there going over the football rankings, prepared for the seventh job for the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Single Hill and filled petrol in her diesel Renault lease car. She was fairly agitated apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things regrettably happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to get to the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the motel she was living at. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off contented and less concerned. Another job in Somerset well done in my mind!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Somerset we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of people not being totally sure how to use it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you get in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the specialised skills and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank may contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases fairly simply.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Single Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill the car. They can also handle any of the standard troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
