Our Areas of Specialties:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Devon we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the car.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Call us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can easily result in idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances rather easily.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Devon for the purpose of draining 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. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Honiton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Devon Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to fix the normal issues which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Honiton - Honiton Wrong Fuel

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! 7:00 on a sunny Wednesday and I was en route to assist an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel Skoda in Honiton. I'd been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a country road en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and arrived within an hour or so. I got to the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she said, "Now I'm getting relatively forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I had only just bought it a few days back after my old car, which I had for about thirty years, finally broke down". I completed the job and she offered me a toffee and said thanks. Such a precious Devon lady!

Recent Fuel Drains in Honiton

Various stories:

We recently had a call about a driver who put the incorrect fuel in his Porsche in Honiton. He had ground to a halt on the road. "It was unbelievable how speedy you people were in getting somebody out to help me after I foolishly filled my diesel car with petrol. Thank you so much". It goes without saying that we arrived promptly and flushed the engine after flushing the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival our fuel drainer said the client was fuming, but was pretty happy when we finished.

Wrong Fuel Assist Honiton - Honiton Wrong Fuel in Car

A young lady living in Honiton called us shortly after she had tried to get her wrong fuelled car to the office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart and, like countless prior to her, assumed that she would be able to just fill her car with diesel and it would run fine. The car was coughing and then it died when she reached the the front of her office. We soon started on the fuel drain following her call and had it fixed within one hour while she was at work. She came out when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely relieved you repaired my car."
