It was about 6 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped raining! Dan and me were relaxing there commenting on the sports rankings, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in West Buckland and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Chevrolet rental by mistake. She was quite irritated apparently, saying "I can not believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure spot and, because it was just a short distance from our van, we could get to her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my books!

Our Areas of Specialties:

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it if you may have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is definitely harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And obviously never start up the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can easily cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Take note that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank at the back of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

We are able to get out to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home.

Vehicle Misfuel West Buckland - West Buckland Wrong Fuel Drain

The other day a man contacted us after his MG broke down along a road in West Buckland. He had unintentionally put unleaded in the diesel car and drove so far as the road before needing to stop. It was actually in the early hours of the day and our technician, who lives nearby, reached him in less than a quarter hour. We managed to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in the vehicle. "Thank you for your immediate response, and in particular at 4 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
