It was after 6 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not ceased raining! Mark and I were relaxing talking over the rugby, prepared for the sixth job to come in. In due time we got the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in The Close and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen rental by mistake. The poor thing was rather affected it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure area and, seeing that it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we could find the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the motel she was living in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away contented and not so anxious. Yet another fuel drain in West Sussex well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout West Sussex we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to people being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol will often result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances quite quickly.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near to parking bay we will be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in West Sussex for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

They are also able to take care of the usual issues which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist The Close - The Close Wrong Fuel Doctor

I'd had a fantastic evening hiking during my day off and was feeling pleased the next morning as I set off to aid a new family who were holidaying in The Close. They'd stopped after filling the wrong fuel into their Fiat, and the car was around half an hour away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself while I listened to the girl telling her partner off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this comes to pass on daily basis in West Sussex and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, even so he all the same got his ear bent. I felt sorry for the guy. At any rate, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!
