We're merely a phone call away.

It was close to six pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were seated there discussing the recent golf rankings, at the ready for the sixth telephone call to arrive. Before long we got a call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Plymouth and put petrol in her diesel Mazda hire car. The poor thing was fairly troubled apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this sadly happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure position and, since it was only a few miles from the office, we were able to reach the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away relaxed and much less worried. Yet another job in Devon done well in my books!

Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in the event that you have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made out of a mixture of high-purity deionized water and urea (32.5%).It is actually damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Contact us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can potentially trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases rather quickly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir at the rear of the garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Devon for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Plymouth (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Devon Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill the car. They are also able to take care of the common troubles that can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Plymouth - Plymouth Fuel Drain

Last week a motorist called us soon after his Volkswagen broke down in the middle of a road in Plymouth. He had accidentally put petrol in the diesel car and drove as far as the road before having to give up. It was in the early hours of the day and our technician, who lives nearby, reached him in approximately 15 minutes. We were able to take out the wrong fuel and put clean diesel once again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your fast response, especially at 1 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."

Vehicle Misfuel Plymouth - Plymouth Fuel Drain

A man had stopped just off a street in Plymouth. His Smart car had stopped functioning and he had no clue what was the problem until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got absolutely no sleep the evening before and that could have been the reason why.

Fuel Rescue Plymouth - Plymouth Fuel Drain

A customer employed in Plymouth phoned us shortly after she had managed to get her wrong fuelled car to her office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Land Rover and, like countless before her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill up her car with diesel and it'd run fine. The vehicle was coughing and then it stopped when she arrived at the the front of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain following her call and had it fixed inside one hour whilst she was working. She came out later on and thanked us saying, "I'm very happy you repaired my vehicle."
