It was close to 8 pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were relaxing going over the tennis, prepared for the next job to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP filling station in Lickfold and put petrol in her diesel Fiat hire car by mistake. She was rather distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that such things sadly often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could arrive at her swiftly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the hotel she was lodging at. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and not so stressed. Yet another fuel drain in West Sussex well done in my opinion!

Services We Provide:
Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.
AdBlue Contamination
All around West Sussex we are noticing a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not understanding how to to make use of (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the car.
Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.
In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it immediately. And certainly do not start the motor - not even to shift it to a parking area. In case you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances pretty expediently.
Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be wholly wet and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to several private and commercial properties in West Sussex to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.
