It was just after 7 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring! Ryan and I were sitting there discussing the tennis rankings, prepared for the sixth call for the day to come in. Before long we had the call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Chulmleigh and put petrol in a diesel Kia rental car in error. She was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I just can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a protected position and, because it was no more than a few miles from our van, we were able to arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was residing in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off contented and much less anxious. A fuel drain in Devon done well in my mind!

He told us; "I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car. And the person who came out to carry out the fuel drain was extremely pleasant - he didn't make me seem silly."

Our Areas of Experience :

We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in the event that you have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? Adblue tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, bringing about serious and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

Give us a call in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can potentially lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances fairly easily.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container laying in the rear of your premises containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Devon to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Chulmleigh (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Devon Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up your car or truck. They will handle any of the typical problems that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
