Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around West Sussex we have noticed a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And of course don't crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking area. If perhaps you did start the car you will very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Any time you discover yourself to be in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the practical know-how and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Poling

I'm not necessarily too enthusiastic about doing the job Sundays, and a while back was the same. I'd only just come away from home following a magnificent roast made by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a fellow after he had put the incorrect fuel in his metallic grey Fiat Nuova 500. He was stationed in Poling so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I arrived behind the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I had my mind on something else and didn't ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I inflicted any kind of harm simply by driving it?" I revealed that truth be told there shouldn't be any damage and also I would remove the contaminated fuel immediately for him. Obviously I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and thus yet another contented motorist could carry on with their ride with no bother. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that helps make operating on Sundays in West Sussex just that tiny bit less painful for me!

This was certainly an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about 3:30am and nobody was stirring. It was quite dead until now, and Ryan and I were sitting reading through a number of old magazines. This was a rare peaceful time in West Sussex. Actually it was that quiet that the instant my mobile inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The voice told me: "I have only just ended my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel raspberry red Skoda by mistake". We asked him to tell us where the vehicle was situated and we headed out, getting to him in Poling only an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the motor. He said many thanks for coming out so fast. As we were heading back home we spotted two ladies on the edge of the road who looked like they had a flat tyre. Accordingly we stopped to change it, to their elation.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
