Services We Deliver:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you?ve poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? Adblue is actually damaging to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, causing devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly don't start the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the car you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases very simply.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Devon for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Honiton - Honiton Fuel Rescue

I had a perfect afternoon hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling delighted the next day as I set out to assist a new family away in Honiton. They stopped after putting the wrong fuel into their Land Rover, and they were approximately an hour's travel away. I got there at their position and laughed as I heard to the girl telling her husband off for being so silly. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass continuously in Devon and that it's nothing to be concerned about, but he still had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed good-bye and pondered on what my wife would ask me if ever I made the same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
