We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Sussex we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not being aware of the way to use it (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel can certainly cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in West Sussex to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

We can help to fill up your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home.
