Wrong fuel Hunston? We have the capacity to support the Hunston area particularly well due to the fact that one of our engineers lives nearby and is for that reason a stone's throw from the action. If you've put petrol in your diesel car anywhere in Hunston we'll be glad to come out and do a thorough fuel drain. Unleaded in diesel in Hunston shouldn't be a huge obstacle. We're only a phone call away.

It was after 6 pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Mark and I were resting talking over the golf results, at the ready for the next fuel drain that day to arrive. In due time we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Hunston and filled petrol in her diesel Nissan rental car. The poor lady was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure space and, since it was only a few minutes away from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive away calm and less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in West Sussex done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All over West Sussex we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to people not being totally sure the way to work with it (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in West Sussex to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Hunston (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your automobile. They will be able to fix any of the standard issues which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
