We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Somerset we are discovering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to use it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to deal with in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank is going to result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances rather simply.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your premises with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Scrapton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) to fill up your vehicle. They will fix any of the most common issues which might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Scrapton - Scrapton Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman phoned us from Scrapton to say he had stupidly piped unleaded in his diesel Fiat. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car!" It took the fuel drainer roughly 50 minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel from the car. He meticulously cleaned the fuel system and then put fresh fuel in the car. The customer was delighted and it hadn't cost him dealership prices to have the job properly completed.
