Wrong Fuel Brighton - Brighton Fuel Removal
What a great night's sleep! 7:30 am on a sunny Sunday and I was on my way to help an older woman who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mitsubishi in Brighton. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a backwater lane en route to see her family. I got her location punched into the Satnav and got there inside an hour or so. I reached the destination and drained the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I have been getting rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel because I had just got it a short while back after my old one, which I'd used for about thirty years, inevitably stopped working". I got the job completed and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely East Sussex woman!

It was before 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it had not ceased raining! Brian and me were seated there discussing the recent golf rankings, at the ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Brighton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda hire car. She was very troubled it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She was able to get the car into a secure position and, since it was only a short distance off from the office, we were able to reach the customer right away.

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.
AdBlue In Diesel
In East Sussex we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.
So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.
In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it right away. And absolutely don't switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can easily contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases quite quickly.
Be aware that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel tank placed in the rear of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties in East Sussex for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.
Out of Fuel Services
Out of fuel in Brighton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your automobile any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will deal with the most common problems which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
Fuel Rescue Brighton - Brighton Wrong Fuel
Last monday a gentleman called us just after his Mitsubishi stopped working on a street in Brighton. He had accidentally put unleaded in the diesel motor and drove so far as the street before being forced to give up. It was still in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who lives close by, reached him in approximately fifteen minutes. We managed to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again in to the vehicle. "Sincere thanks to you for your fast response, especially at 6 a.m., I appreciate it."

Petrol in Diesel Brighton - Brighton Fuel Rescue
This was most definitely what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was about 3am and nobody was around. It had been fairly uneventful up to now, and Mark and I were loafing about looking at some old papers. That was an unusual quiet moment in East Sussex. It was in fact that peaceful that the instant the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The person told me: "I completed my evening shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen in error". I asked him to inform us where exactly the car was and we set off, arriving in Brighton not as much as an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the engine and he thanked us profusely for coming out so quickly. As we were heading back home we saw two young women on the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. Obviously we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.
Fuel Drain Brighton - Brighton Fuel Drain
A man contacted us from his house on a close in Brighton. He exclaimed, "My car (a MG) is not running and is making dreadful sounds when I turn the key." He said that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would remedy the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, carried out the drain and filled him up once again with untainted Diesel. He told us that he'd be sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out promptly.
