It was just after five pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and me were relaxing there talking about the weekend's golf, at the ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Eventually we had the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Clayton and filled petrol in her diesel Audi rental in error. The poor lady was fairly troubled apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things sadly can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we were able to reach the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off contented and less anxious. A misfuel correction in West Sussex done well in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around West Sussex we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not understanding the way to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at once. And most definitely take care not to start up the car - not even to move it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can certainly result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations quite quickly.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to many private and commercial premises in West Sussex to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

We are able to help to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home.

Petrol in Diesel Clayton - Clayton Fuel Rescue

Last friday a motorist phoned us just after his Mercedes broke down along a street in Clayton. He had by accident put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and managed to get to the road before being forced to pull up. It was actually in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who stays locally, got to him in less than 20 minutes. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Thank you for your timely response, particularly at 2 a.m., I appreciate it."
