It was just before 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and me were sitting there talking about the recent football, prepared for the 6th job of the day to arrive. Before long we got the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Lower Wraxall and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Toyota rental car in error. She was very distressed apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe spot and, since it was only a few miles from our van, we could arrive at the customer right away. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off satisfied and not so apprehensive. Yet another job in Somerset well done in my books!

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Somerset we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people not understanding the way to to make use of (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can easily contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases fairly simply.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank in the rear of your premises with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Somerset for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even several containers in a shed, as long as we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of fuel in Lower Wraxall (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to handle the common problems which could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Lower Wraxall - Lower Wraxall Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man had broken down just off a road in Lower Wraxall. His Nissan car had ceased functioning and he had no clue what was awry till he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can't believe that I didn't comprehend that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the evening before and that must have been the key reason why.
