It was just after 8 pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were resting talking over the recent rugby, prepared for the sixth telephone call to come in. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Southmarsh and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Land Rover lease car. The poor lady was pretty distressed it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that things like this can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected space and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from where we were, we could find her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive home satisfied and less worried. Yet another fuel drain in Somerset well done in my mind!

Services We Give:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in the event that you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s composed of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water.It is actually damaging to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be injected into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances rather simply.

Remember that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking bay we can reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank at the rear of your garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Somerset to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

We can get out to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They will be able to deal with the common issues that can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Southmarsh - Southmarsh Petrol in Diesel

A man had broken down just near a street in Southmarsh. His Volvo motor had ceased operating and he'd no clue what was faulty until eventually he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had gotten zero rest the night before and that must have been precisely why.
