It was close to ten pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not ceased raining! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the recent footy results, at the ready for the sixth call for the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the BP filling garage in Stoney Stratton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Renault lease car in error. She was somewhat troubled apparently, stating "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe spot and, because it was just a few miles away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off contented and a lot less worried. One more fuel drain in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

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

AdBlue Contamination

All over Somerset we have discovered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to work with it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical expertise and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations quite simply.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages.
