It was after 8 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry day, it had not ceased raining! Mark and I were resting there talking about the recent tennis rankings, waiting around for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. In due time we had a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Compton Pauncefoot and filled petrol in her diesel Lexus rental in error. She was quite distressed apparently, telling me "I can not believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected position and, because it was no more than a few miles from us, we were able to get to the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and much less concerned. A job in Somerset well done in my books!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Somerset we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people being unsure of the right way to use it (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most certainly never turn over the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations pretty swiftly.

Take note however that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
