Wrong Fuel in Car Salcombe - Salcombe Petrol in Diesel
Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Sunday and I was on the way to help an old lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel Lexus in Salcombe. I'd been informed she had left the filling station and was stranded on a country road along the way to see her godchildren. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I'd only just acquired it a week ago because my old car, which I had had for more than twenty five years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a delightful Devon woman!

This is what exactly we do best.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All around Devon we have discovered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to people not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the automobile.
So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And absolutely take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it into a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you will in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to handle in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will often trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.
Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Devon to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it.
Run Out of Fuel Services
Out of fuel in Salcombe (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Devon Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your vehicle 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 (bought at pump price) to fill up your car. They are also able to take care of the common problems which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Salcombe - Salcombe Wrong Fuel Assist
A woman from Salcombe with a full car of children in her diesel Suzuki had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Sainsburys station. She called us weeping and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel and did not know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that the car should be fine and that she would be ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the kids in the back."
