Services We Deliver:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Devon we are noticing progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely do not switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. If you have started the car you may very likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases pretty quickly.

Take note that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in Devon for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Dawlish (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Devon Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your car. They will deal with the usual problems that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Dawlish - Dawlish Wrong Fuel Doctor

A motorist had conked out near a road in Dawlish. His Suzuki car had stopped working and he had no idea what was wrong right up until he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He stated that he had gotten no rest the night before and that could have been why.
