We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Sussex we are identifying a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers being unsure of how to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And of course do not start up the car - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol may bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases rather simply.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank in the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and business premises in West Sussex for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Haslingbourne (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive West Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will take care of any of the usual issues which may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Haslingbourne - Haslingbourne Wrong Fuel Assist

I had a perfect afternoon golfing on my afternoon off and was feeling delighted with myself the following morning as I set out to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Haslingbourne. They conked out after inserting diesel into their Smart, and the car was around an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed while I heard to the gal telling her man off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you possibly find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this situation happens constantly in West Sussex and that it's nothing at all to worry about, even so he all the same got his ear bent. Unfortunate boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some proper fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and considered what my wife would say to me if perhaps I made the same blunder... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

Fuel Rescue Haslingbourne - Haslingbourne Vehicle Misfuel

A driver from Haslingbourne with a full car of little ones in her diesel Citroen had put £20 of petrol at the station. She contacted us sobbing and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and did not know what might happen to her car in doing so. We told her that the car would be ok and that she would be on the road soon. When we got there she was still upset but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the little ones in the back."

Wrong Fuel Drain Haslingbourne - Haslingbourne Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a wonderful evening fishing during my holiday and felt delighted with myself the following working day as I set out to help a young couple on holiday in Haslingbourne. They'd conked out after adding diesel in their Smart, and were close to an hour away. I turned up at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the lady chastising her husband for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you even manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing takes place everyday in West Sussex and that it's nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he yet still got his ear bent. Poor lad. Anyway, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved hasta la vista and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if I made the exact same mistake... I would under no circumstances live it down!
