It was around five pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and me were seated there talking over the weekend's sports, waiting around for the seventh job to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Shell filling station in Withdean and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo hire car. She was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I still can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a protected spot and, because it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we were able to get to her quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off satisfied and a lot less worried. One more job in East Sussex well done in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel
How to handle it in case you may have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made out of a mixture of deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).Adblue can be harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into your fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, causing devastating and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.
In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it asap. And certainly do not switch on the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can certainly result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances rather expediently.
Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we can gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
