It was after 5 pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and me were sitting talking about the weekend's rugby, waiting around for the 8th call for the day to come in. In due time we had the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Honiton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes rental car by mistake. She was fairly distressed apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected space and, because it was only a short distance away from us, we were able to find the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and much less worried. A fuel drain in Devon done well in my mind!

Services Our Company Offers:

Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do in the event that you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid composed of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water.It tends to be harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be injected into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Devon to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a shed, as long as we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Honiton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Devon Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They will handle the most common troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Honiton - Honiton Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man had stopped near a road in Honiton. His Chevrolet car had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was faulty right up until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten absolutely no sleep the evening before and that could have been why.
