Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

Tank filled with incorrect fuel - Diesel engine filled with petrol fuel is hazardous and should be given consideration immediately. Your vehicle will begin to show some signs such as an abnormal amount of smoke in the exhaust. It will cough and splutter too. Not only that, starting the engine back is practically impossible once you've turned it off.

Tank with water - Water in the tank should be taken out of the fuel system through totally flashing it out or else you will see problems like jolting, spluttering or revving up. That?s including the rust in the engine that will be accumulated if taken for granted. Possible causes include the containers like jerry cans that were used in filling the engine tank. It?s possible that the cans were not fully emptied when you used it in filling car?s tank.

AdBlue immediately added to your tank - Mistakenly adding AdBlue to your tank can contaminate your fuel system. People commonly don?t have a concrete idea of what AdBlue is for. It?s not a fuel additive. It?s a liquid that helps lessen the bad effect on our environment simply by reducing the emissions in the car?s exhaust. It should be added via a separate tank, not straight to the fuel tank. In the event you fall victim to this contamination, let?s us do the flushing job.

Tank with red diesel - This type of fuel may be distributed in a limited number of garage outlets. Still, contamination may find its way to your tank. You could fill your tank unintentionally using jerry cans filled up with red diesel. You are maybe not focused on what you're doing or distracted when this happened. Still, don?t fret; we are aware of what to do with it.

Tank with old or stale fuel - The quality of fuel will be lost if the car is on standby and has been idle for a while. Its fuel on the tank will degrade if left unused. The engine may start and run but there will be problems you'll notice. Draining out the old fuel is a service we are more than capable of doing.

Wrong Fuel in Car Okehampton - Okehampton Petrol in Diesel

This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2am and noone was around. It was fairly uneventful thus far, and Ray and I were sitting about browsing a number of old newspapers. This was an uncommon quiet hour in Devon. Actually it was in fact that calm that when my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The person on the phone stated: "I've concluded my evening shift and stupidly put petrol in a diesel Hyundai by mistake". I asked him to inform us where the car was located and we set off, reaching him in Okehampton not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the engine. He thanked us profusely for getting there so quickly. While we were going back home we saw two girls on the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled up to change it, to their elation.

Petrol in Diesel Okehampton - Okehampton Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a great afternoon golfing during my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the next day as I was en route to aid a young family on holiday in Okehampton. They pulled over after filling petrol in their Audi, and were close to an hour's travel away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the woman berating her hubby for actually being so silly. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this problem happens quite frequently in Devon and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, even so he in spite of everything got his ear bent. Poor chap. At any rate, I removed all the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove off I shouted good bye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!
