It was around 6 pm on a Friday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and me were sitting there commenting on the tennis rankings, prepared for the 8th call to come in. In due time we got a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Ilford and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Vauxhall hire car in error. She was quite irritated apparently, stating "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe spot and, because it was only a few miles off from the office, we could reach her right away. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away satisfied and much less worried. Another fuel drain in Somerset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Somerset we have identified increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by people being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations rather expediently.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Run out of fuel in Ilford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your car.
