It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were seated there commenting on the recent sports, waiting for the seventh call to come in. Before long we had the call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the BP filling station in West Lavington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mitsubishi rental car by mistake. She was rather irritated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a protected space and, as it was only a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the woman right away. The bad fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off contented and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in West Sussex done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
In West Sussex we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not knowing the way to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.
Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting 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. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it right away. And obviously take care not to start up the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances very expediently.
Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
