It was just before five pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a rainless night, it had not ceased pouring! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's football, waiting for the 8th fuel drain of the day to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in The Close and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Peugeot rental car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from us, we were able to reach the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home calm and much less stressed. One more misfuel correction in West Sussex well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any connected issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In West Sussex we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of motorists not understanding how to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you find yourself in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the technical skills and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will often trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases pretty swiftly.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in West Sussex to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even several drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of fuel in The Close (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home.
