It was before seven pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting talking about the golf, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in West Itchenor and put petrol in a diesel Land Rover hire car. The unfortunate thing was pretty affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately do happen. She was able to move the car into a secure spot and, since it was only a few miles away from where we were, we were able to find the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off contented and not so stressed. Another job in West Sussex done well in my books!

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over West Sussex we have encountered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to motorists being unsure of the way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Should you get in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the practical competence and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases very swiftly.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in West Sussex for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in West Itchenor (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the typical issues that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

A customer had stopped off a street in West Itchenor. His Honda engine had stopped operating and he had no clue what was wrong right up until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle.
