Petrol in Diesel Portslade-by-Sea - Portslade-by-Sea Vehicle Misfuel

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Saturday and I was off to help an older sweetheart who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Renault in Portslade-by-Sea. I had been told she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up in a country road on the way to visit her godchildren. I popped the location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel as I'd only got it a couple of days ago after my other car, which I had owned for more than 25 years, inevitably broke down". I completed the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a precious East Sussex woman!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

In East Sussex we have seen progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers not understanding the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

So, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases pretty simply.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container laying in the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in East Sussex to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Portslade-by-Sea (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your automobile any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They can also deal with any of the normal issues that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

A gentleman phoned us from Portslade-by-Sea to state that he had foolishly pumped unleaded into his diesel Lexus. "Shocking! How could I put the wrong fuel in my nice diesel car!" It took the specialist roughly fifty minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel out of the vehicle. He thoroughly flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put clean fuel in the vehicle. The customer was thrilled and it didn't cost him car dealership rates to have the task professionally done.

We provide you with fresh fuel at pump prices, and we are able to usually have your car drained and set to head out in less than an hour or so. All contaminated fuel is discarded by us by way of a registered waste company and recycled.

Recent Fuel Drains in Portslade-by-Sea

Some of the common things we see from many of our engineers in Portslade-by-Sea:

We recently got a phone call about a guy who had put the wrong fuel in his Suzuki in Portslade-by-Sea. He had ground to a halt on the road. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the quandary up until I stopped working. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and got it working again. I was amazed with both your speed and your pricing". It goes without saying that we arrived rapidly and flushed the engine after draining all of the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival our technician said the driver was fuming, but was happy afterwards.

Fuel Drain Portslade-by-Sea - Portslade-by-Sea Wrong Fuel Doctor

A lady from Portslade-by-Sea with her children in her diesel Hyundai had put £30 of petrol at the BP petrol station. She contacted us crying and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that the vehicle would be fine and that she would be in action in no time at all. When we arrived she was visible distressed but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the little ones on board."

Petrol in Diesel Portslade-by-Sea - Portslade-by-Sea Wrong Fuel

A customer rang us from his house on a road in Portslade-by-Sea. He pronounced, "My car (a Audi) is not starting and is creating terrible sounds when I flip the key." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would fix the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We got there promptly, performed the drain and filled it up again with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
