It was close to six pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's football results, waiting for the 6th job for the day to come in. Before long we had the call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in West Worthing and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel MG rental. The unfortunate lady was very affected it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that things like this often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive home relaxed and not so apprehensive. Another job in West Sussex done well in my opinion!

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any related issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do if you may have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a mixture of deionized water and urea.Adblue tends to be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing devastating and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at once. And absolutely never crank the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to deal with in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can potentially result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations pretty easily.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank laying at the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in West Sussex to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, if we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

We are able to come to fill up the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home.

They will be able to take care of any of the most common issues which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
