It was close to eight pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not ceased pouring! Dan and me were resting there talking over the recent footy results, at the ready for the seventh telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Exeter and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Toyota hire car in error. The poor lady was quite troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the car to a safe area and, since it was just a few minutes from the office, we were able to find her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home relaxed and much less stressed. One more fuel drain in Devon well done in my mind!

Services We Offer:
Listed here are our top services we offer to our clients.
AdBlue In Diesel
What to do if you have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s composed of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).Adblue is certainly devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.
Should you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have the practical expertise and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will result in idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances quite easily.
Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Devon for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run out of fuel in Exeter (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Devon Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home.

Wrong Fuel in Car Exeter - Exeter Wrong Fuel Assist
What a great night's sleep! 7:00 on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and I was en route to help an elder lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel Mercedes in Exeter. I had been informed she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down on a rural road along the way to see her family. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the car and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing it she said to me, "I am getting rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel seeing that I had just purchased it several days back because my old one, which I had for more than 30 years, inevitably died on me". I finished the job and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a precious Devon lady!
