It was close to 7 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and me were relaxing there discussing the recent footy, prepared for the 8th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in West Thorney and put petrol in a diesel Dacia lease car in error. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home calm and not so worried. One more job in West Sussex done well in my books!

Services We Offer:

We can assist you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in the event that you may have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? Adblue can be devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And certainly never switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may contribute to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases rather simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in West Sussex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Doctor West Thorney - West Thorney Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man rang us from his place on a close in West Thorney. He explained, "My vehicle (a Suzuki) is not running and is making awful sounds when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then believed he would fix the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the drain and filled him up once again with untainted Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
