It was just after ten pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing commenting on the sports rankings, ready for the 6th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Sparkford and filled petrol in a diesel Kia lease car in error. She was quite agitated it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from our van, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off calm and much less stressed. Yet another job in Somerset done well in my mind!

Services We Offer:

Listed below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in case you?ve poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made out of a blend of ionized water and urea (32.5%).Adblue is actually damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

If you get in this scenario do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have the practical skills and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can certainly bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances fairly easily.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to an automobile parking spot we are able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank lying at the rear of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced 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 several drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Sparkford (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill the car. They are also able to deal with any of the standard issues that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Sparkford - Sparkford Wrong Fuel Drain

A person called us from his residence on a street in Sparkford. He pronounced, "My car (a Ford) is not running and is making very bad sounds when I turn the ignition." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would resolve the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
