It was close to 8 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not given up on raining! James and I were resting going over the recent sports, at the ready for the sixth call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Newton Abbot and put petrol in her diesel Jaguar hire car. The unfortunate lady was fairly agitated apparently, telling me "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to get the car to a safe space and, as it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we could reach her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Devon done well in my opinion!

Services Our Company Offers:

Listed here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Devon we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by people not knowing the way to to make use of (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Contact us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will likely contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both situations rather easily.

Take note that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank placed in the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial properties in Devon to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a shed, providing we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Newton Abbot (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Devon Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home.
