It was close to 8 pm on a Saturday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated discussing the recent sports, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in East Hoathly and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Renault lease car. The poor thing was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home calm and not so apprehensive. Another job in East Sussex well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination
All over East Sussex we are finding an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not understanding how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the automobile.
So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And definitely never start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can potentially result in idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances quite quickly.
Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel container placed at the back of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in East Sussex to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.
