It was before seven pm on a Monday and although we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and me were resting there going over the weekend's tennis rankings, ready for the sixth job that day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in West Buckland and put petrol in a diesel Citroen rental car by mistake. She was fairly troubled apparently, saying "I can not believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that these things unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we could find the lady quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got really drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home relaxed and less apprehensive. Yet another job in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Offered Services:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in the event that you may have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid composed of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water.Adblue is definitely damaging to your car's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be squirted into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel will bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations very expediently.

Be aware that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have an old fuel tank placed at the rear of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Wrong Fuel Drain West Buckland - West Buckland Vehicle Misfuel

A motorist had stopped just near a street in West Buckland. His Lexus motor had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was the problem right up until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I can't believe that I did not realise that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten absolutely no rest the day before and that must have been the reason.
