Our Areas of Competency :

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Somerset we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not understanding how to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And most certainly don't start up the engine - not even to shift it to a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to take care of in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can potentially bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations pretty easily.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the rear of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Crowcombe (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your automobile. They can also fix the standard issues that may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Crowcombe - Crowcombe Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a great afternoon golfing during my day off and felt satisfied the following day as I was on the way to aid a new couple holidaying in Crowcombe. They broken down after adding diesel into their Renault, and were around an hour away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself as I heard to the wife telling her man off for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this situation occurs quite frequently in Somerset and that it's nothing at all to worry about, but he all the same got an ear bashing by his missus. Poor lad. Anyhow, I drained all of the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I shouted so long and considered what my wife would tell me in the event that I made the same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
