This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Somerset we have found a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly due to drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking bay. Assuming you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel can easily contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases rather expediently.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir at the back of the garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Somerset to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Claverton Down (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They can also fix any of the normal problems which can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Claverton Down - Claverton Down Fuel Removal

I enjoyed a great evening cycling during my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a young couple holidaying in Claverton Down. They had stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their Chevrolet, and were approximately half an hour away. I showed up at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the lady telling her hubby off for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this goes on continuously in Somerset and that it's nothing at all to fret about, even so he yet still had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted goodbye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I made the very same mistake... I'd never live it down!

Recent Fuel Drains in Claverton Down

Stories from our own Claverton Down team:

A teen who had only passed his test had misfueled his Renault by putting petrol in his diesel car at the station close to Claverton Down. He said, "This is just the second time I have fuelled my car since I got it and I have no idea of how to proceed." He was also worried as his step father had just recently paid for the car. He discovered us on the web and so called it without delay, worried about what he needed to do. Our guy on the telephones advised him that we could be on scene in forty five minutes and to not do anything to the car while waiting. We performed the fuel drain on his vehicle and he mentioned how astonished he was it was taken care of so rapidly and without any complication .

Vehicle Misfuel Claverton Down - Claverton Down Petrol in Diesel

This was most definitely what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 2:30am and noone was around. It was fairly uneventful until now, and Ryan and I were loafing browsing a number of old articles. This was a rare peaceful hour in Somerset. It was so calm that the instant the phone inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The person on the other end stated: "I have only just ended my night shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel Peugeot". I instructed him to inform us where exactly he was and we set off, arriving in Claverton Down under an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the car. He thanked us profusely for coming out so promptly. As we were coming back to the office we found two young ladies at the side of the road who looked like they had a flat. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.

Vehicle Misfuel Claverton Down - Claverton Down Fuel Removal

I'd had a great evening golfing on my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the next day as I set off to help a new couple who were on holiday in Claverton Down. They conked out after filling petrol into their Citroen, and were around an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal telling off her man for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually manage to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this happens regularly in Somerset and that it's truly nothing to worry about, even so he in spite of everything had an earful by his missus. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted so long and considered what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would never ever live it down!
