It was around six pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were relaxing there commenting on the recent sports results, waiting around for the seventh job for the day to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in West Lyng and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Peugeot rental by mistake. The poor lady was rather troubled apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from the office, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive away contented and not so concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my mind!

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Somerset we have noticed an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Contact us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can easily bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances quite swiftly.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Vehicle Misfuel West Lyng - West Lyng Fuel Removal

This was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had been pretty dead thus far, and Brian and I were relaxing perusing a few old papers. This was a rare peaceful time in Somerset. Actually it was so tranquil that when the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The voice on the phone told me: "I only just finished my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the Dacia by mistake". I told him to tell us where he was and we headed out, ending up in West Lyng less than an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he said thanks for coming so quickly. While we were coming back to base we spotted two ladies on the side of the highway who seemed like they had a puncture. Accordingly we stopped to help them change it, to their delight.
