Wrong Fuel in Car Topsham - Topsham Wrong Fuel Drain
Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Tuesday and we were off to assist an older lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel BMW in Topsham. I'd been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down along a backwater lane along the way to see her family. I popped her location into the Satnav and was with her inside 60 minutes. I got to the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only purchased it a few days back right after my old one, which I had owned for over 25 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I finished the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a precious Devon woman!

Wrong Fuel Drain Topsham - Topsham Fuel Rescue
I had a great day cycling during my off day and was feeling contented with myself the next morning as I set out to help a young family who were on vacation in Topsham. They broken down after adding diesel into their Renault, and they were close to half an hour away. I got there at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for being so silly. "How could you conceivably find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this problem comes to pass constantly in Devon and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, and yet he yet still had his ear bent. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed goodbye and considered what my missus would tell me if I made the exact same error... I would personally never hear the end of it!

AdBlue Contamination
All over Devon we are noticing more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists not understanding the way to use it (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
In the case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely don't start the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may probably need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances pretty simply.
You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
