It was close to 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were resting discussing the recent footy, at the ready for the next telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we received a call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Brixham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Jaguar rental by mistake. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a protected space and, as it was only a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and not so worried. Yet another fuel drain in Devon done well in my opinion!

Listed here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Devon we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is going to trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances quite easily.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking bay we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank placed at the rear of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Devon to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, if we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Brixham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Devon Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to fix the typical issues which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Brixham - Brixham Vehicle Misfuel

A man had stopped just off a street in Brixham. His Jaguar car had stopped working and he'd no clue what was awry until eventually he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I can not believe that I didn't realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got virtually no rest the night before and that could have been the key reason why.
