It was just after eight pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting going over the weekend's footy, at the ready for the seventh telephone call to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Westbury-sub-Mendip and put petrol in her diesel Volvo hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I still can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a secure space and, since it was no more than a short distance from us, we were able to arrive at her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and much less anxious. One more fuel drain in Somerset done well in my mind!

Provided Services: Our Specialties:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed in the event that you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that is composed of a mixture of ionized water and urea (32.5%).Adblue can be disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, leading to devastating and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And of course never turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will likely cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations very easily.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir in the rear of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, if we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

We are able to come to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your automobile.

Vehicle Misfuel Westbury-sub-Mendip - Westbury-sub-Mendip Fuel Removal

A guy had stopped just near a street in Westbury-sub-Mendip. His SEAT engine had stopped operating and he had no idea what was the problem till he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can not believe that I didn't detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got very little rest the evening before and that must have been the reason why.
