It was close to 9 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! James and me were relaxing talking about the weekend's rugby results, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Haywards Heath and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo rental by mistake. The poor thing was very agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things can happen. She was able to move the car into a safe position and, since it was just a few miles away from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer quickly.

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over West Sussex we are finding more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to motorists being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Should you discover youself to be in this position don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the specialised expertise and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will likely result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases rather simply.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel container laying in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in West Sussex to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

We can easily help to refill the car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home.
