It was close to 5 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were resting going over the weekend's golf results, at the ready for the next telephone call for the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Towns End and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Land Rover hire car by mistake. She was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe area and, as it was only a short distance from the office, we could get to the woman quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to return to the hotel she was lodging at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off calm and not so apprehensive.

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Somerset we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people being unsure of the right way to work with it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most certainly take care not to start up the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will likely bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases fairly simply.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container in the rear of your garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Somerset to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a garage, as long as we can access it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Towns End (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to fix the typical troubles that might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
