Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over West Sussex we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most definitely don't turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol may well produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances quite easily.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container sitting in the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business premises in West Sussex for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Hermitage (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive West Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They can also deal with any of the most common problems that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle however believed he would remedy the problem by putting additional Diesel on top.

Recent Fuel Drains in Hermitage

Tales from our own Hermitage team:

A young adult who had only recently got his licence had misfueled his Citroen by getting unleaded in the diesel at the petrol station near Hermitage. He said, "This is the second occasion I have fuelled my car since I got it and I have no idea of how to handle it." He was also anxious since his dad had only just bought him the car. He came across our company on the internet and so called us immediately, scared about what he should do. Our guy on the telephones told him that we could be with him in 45 minutes and to not move his car while waiting. We carried out the drain on his vehicle and he stated how impressed he was that it was handled so quickly and no consequence whatsoever.

Wrong Fuel in Car Hermitage - Hermitage Wrong Fuel Drain

This was certainly the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been rather quiet so far, and Mark and I were sitting around looking through some old magazines. It was an uncommon calm hour in West Sussex. It was that relaxing that when the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist stated: "I've only just concluded my night shift and foolishly poured petrol in my diesel Chevrolet in error". We instructed him to let us know just where the vehicle was and we hit the road, getting to him in Hermitage an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the car and he thanked us profusely for coming so rapidly. While we were returning to the depot we spotted two young women at the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

Wrong Fuel Drain Hermitage - Hermitage Wrong Fuel

A gentleman had conked out just off a street in Hermitage. His Smart car had ceased operating and he had no idea what was faulty until eventually he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I cannot believe that I didn't realise that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten virtually no sleep the day before and that must have been the key reason why.
