It was close to 9 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were resting there commenting on the recent golf results, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Somerley and put petrol in a diesel MG rental car. The poor thing was rather irritated apparently, saying "I can not believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure area and, as it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was extracted so she could get back to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away satisfied and less concerned. A fuel drain in West Sussex well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over West Sussex we have discovered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly stemming from motorists not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you end up in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical know-how and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important issue to deal with in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol may cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases pretty easily.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank sitting at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business premises in West Sussex for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Somerley (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive West Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car. They will take care of any of the typical problems that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Somerley - Somerley Fuel Drain

I had a great evening golfing during my holiday and was feeling delighted the following working day as I set out to help a new couple vacationing in Somerley. They broken down after filling petrol into their Peugeot, and the car was roughly an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and laughed while I listened to the wife berating her hubby for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this situation takes place on a regular basis in West Sussex and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, and yet he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate guy. Anyhow, I removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed goodbye and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would never live it down!
