It was before 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the sports rankings, ready for the 8th call for the day to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Marehill and filled petrol in a diesel Peugeot hire car by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat distressed apparently, crying "I can not believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things can happen. She managed to move the car into a secure space and, because it was just a short distance off from us, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off calm and not so concerned. A fuel drain in West Sussex done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Sussex we are noticing an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people being unsure of how to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the car you may likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel will often cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances quite swiftly.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got an old fuel container laying at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in West Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

A man contacted us from his residence on a close in Marehill. He explained, "My car (a Kia) is not starting and is creating awful sounds when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he had put petrol in his diesel car however reckoned he would fix the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We got there promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up again with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it drained immediately.
