It was about ten pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing there discussing the golf results, at the ready for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Eventually we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Keynsham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, seeing as it was only a short distance away from us, we could get to the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and much less worried. Another misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my opinion!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Somerset we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not knowing the way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is primarily deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And definitely don't start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you will probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel may bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations fairly expediently.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank placed at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in Somerset to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Keynsham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your car or truck. They can also fix any of the normal issues that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Keynsham - Keynsham Wrong Fuel in Car

A man rang us from his house on a street in Keynsham. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Citroen) is not starting up and is generating dreadful noises when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would resolve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once again with untainted Diesel. He told us that he would be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it drained right away.
