This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Devon we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to to make use of (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to handle in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol may well cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations fairly swiftly.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container lying in the back of the garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Devon to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Ilfracombe (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Devon Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your car. They are also able to handle any of the normal troubles which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Ilfracombe - Ilfracombe Fuel Drain

I had a perfect day hiking during my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next morning as I headed out to assist a new couple on vacation in Ilfracombe. They'd pulled over after inserting diesel into their Land Rover, and the car was about half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the wife telling her husband off for actually being so daft. "How could you possibly manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs on daily basis in Devon and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, but he yet still had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor boy. Anyhow, I drained out the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and wondered what my wife would ask me if perhaps I made the exact same error... I would never ever hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Ilfracombe

Here are comments and instances of wrong fuel removal we have undertaken in Ilfracombe:

I am not overly enthusiastic about working weekends, and the other day was no different. I had just come away from the family following a superb dinner made for us by the wife, and I was off to assist a man after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his Honda. He was located in Ilfracombe thus it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived at the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my concentration on other considerations and did not ascertain I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I inflicted some problems as a result of starting it?" I stated that there should not be harm and that also I'd drain the fuel quickly for him. It goes without saying that I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the suitable fuel, and thus yet another delighted customer had the ability to continue on his journey without any hassle. The guy could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what tends to make working on weekends in Devon a little bit easier in my opinion!

Fuel Rescue Ilfracombe - Ilfracombe Vehicle Misfuel

A customer who had sadly put the wrong fuel in his diesel Chevrolet called us for assistance at the BP petrol station in Ilfracombe. He thought it would be good to top up before proceeding on to the nearby recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol rather than diesel which probably wasn't a good way to start to our getaway." It was absolutely no challenge at all for our technical engineer to go out and carry out the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their holiday break.

Wrong Fuel in Car Ilfracombe - Ilfracombe Fuel Removal

A customer phoned us from his house on a road in Ilfracombe. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Suzuki) is not starting and is producing very bad noises when I flip the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would resolve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We got there promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once again with untainted Diesel. He said after that he would be certain to inform people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it drained right away.
