It was after five pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated commenting on the weekend's football rankings, waiting for the 8th call that day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling station in Walderton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Jaguar lease car. The poor lady was pretty irritated apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things often happen. She was able to relocate the car to a protected area and, since it was only a few miles off from our van, we could arrive at the customer swiftly.

Despite the fact that we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried. Yet another job in West Sussex done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Listed here are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue tends to be disastrous to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be pushed into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly do not switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you would most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations fairly easily.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in West Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Walderton - Walderton Wrong Fuel

I had enjoyed a fantastic evening cycling on my holiday and felt contented the next morning as I set out to aid a young family who were holidaying in Walderton. They'd broken down after adding diesel into their Volvo, and they were around an hour's drive away. I showed up at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the woman telling her man off for being so foolish. "How could you even find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on all the time in West Sussex and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, nonetheless he still had his ear bent by his better half. Poor lad. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I waved farewell and thought about what my missus would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
