It was around six pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were seated discussing the recent footy rankings, prepared for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Ebernoe and put petrol in her diesel Mitsubishi rental. She was somewhat irritated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure position and, as it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away satisfied and not so worried. One more job in West Sussex done well in my books!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over West Sussex we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not knowing how to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you get in this predicament don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances very simply.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in West Sussex to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

We're able to get out to re-fill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home.

Wrong Fuel in Car Ebernoe - Ebernoe Wrong Fuel Assist

A man contacted us from his residence on a street in Ebernoe. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Chevrolet) is not running and is generating very bad noises when I turn the key." He confessed that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would remedy the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up again with clean Diesel. He said that he would be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
