Vehicle Misfuel Preston Bowyer - Preston Bowyer Fuel Drain

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Wednesday and we were on my way to help an older woman who had put petrol in her diesel Mitsubishi in Preston Bowyer. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and broken down on a rural lane on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped her location in the TomTom and arrived within 60 minutes. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she said, "I have been getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only just bought it a week ago when my old one, which I'd owned for in excess of twenty five years, inevitably broke down". I finished the drain and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant Somerset lady!

Our Areas of Experience :

Listed here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do in the event that you have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue can be disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And obviously don't start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel can certainly cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases quite quickly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank laying in the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in Somerset for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Preston Bowyer (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill the car. They are also able to take care of any of the typical problems which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
