It was about 10 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Findon Valley and filled petrol in a diesel Kia lease car. The poor thing was very irritated it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things sadly often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive away satisfied and a lot less anxious. Yet another job in West Sussex well done in my books!

Our Services:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do in case you?ve put Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s composed of a blend of high-purity urea and ionized water (67.5%).Adblue can be damaging to your car's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with Adblue in your fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will be squirted into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And obviously do not start up the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will likely contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in West Sussex to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a shed, providing we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Findon Valley (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete West Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They can also take care of the standard troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
