Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Somerset we are discovering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And certainly don't switch on the car - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can easily result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations very easily.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Somerset to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Swell (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill your automobile. They are also able to deal with the most common problems which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
