It was just before 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were resting talking over the recent tennis rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Before long we received a call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Tolhurst and put petrol in a diesel Ford lease car by mistake. The poor lady was very affected it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She was able to get the car to a protected space and, since it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to find the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was living in.

Our Areas of Experience :

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

AdBlue Contamination

All around East Sussex we have discovered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it to a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can easily contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases quite expediently.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container placed in the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in East Sussex for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Tolhurst (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car. They can also deal with the most common issues that may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Tolhurst - Tolhurst Fuel Drain

The other day a youngster called us right after his Nissan stopped working on a road in Tolhurst. He had mistakenly put the incorrect fuel in his diesel vehicle and drove so far as the road before having to give up. It was really early in the morning and our technical engineer, who stays close by, was with him in about 20 minutes. We managed to take out the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again into the vehicle. "Thank you for your timely response, and in particular at 6 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
