It was after 7 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and me were relaxing talking about the weekend's sports rankings, waiting around for the next job for the day to come in. Finally we had the call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Langport and put petrol in her diesel Nissan hire car. The poor thing was very troubled it seemed, crying "I can't believe that I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing as it was only a short distance from the office, we could arrive at the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home satisfied and much less concerned. Another misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have discovered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Whenever you find yourself in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the practical skills and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to take care of in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank can potentially lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations quite quickly.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Somerset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Langport (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car. They are also able to fix any of the typical issues that may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Tales from our Langport staff:

We were phoned by a man whose Volkswagen had stopped on a road after a misfuel. "I got the pumps confused and put petrol instead of diesel in my vehicle . These guys came out and resolved the problem after my vehicle died." We purged the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines completely afterwards and the gentleman could continue on with his sheduled delivery.

Fuel Rescue Langport - Langport Fuel Removal

A lady working in Langport phoned us as soon as she tried to get her misfueled automobile to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Nissan and, like many people prior to her, imagined that she would be able to simply top up the tank with diesel and it'd run alright. The vehicle was chugging and then it died when she got to the the front of her work. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it resolved within an hour or so while she was at work. She came out soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm very delighted you fixed my car."
