These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Somerset we have identified a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Call us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to correct all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances very quickly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir at the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Somerset to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Darshill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car or truck.
