Our Services:
Below are our top services we give to our customers.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All over Devon we are noticing an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers being unsure of how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.
Give us a call if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to address in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel will often contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances rather expediently.
Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Devon to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Just a few of the more typical details we come across from many of our technicians in Topsham:
Now I'm not ever very interested in working on weekends, and a week ago was the same. I had just left the family after eating a magnificent dinner made for me by the missus, and I was off to help a guy who had put the wrong petrol in his Skoda. He was somewhere in Topsham thus I was on scene very quickly. Just as I pulled up at the vehicle and started work he told me "Thank God! I had my concentration on other considerations and didn't perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I inflicted problems by running it?" I said there shouldn't be any damage and that I would get the wrong fuel drained quickly. It goes without saying that I drained the wrong fuel from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and so one more content client could continue on his journey without the need for fuss. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what helps make working on Sundays in Devon that tiny bit easier to me!
