It was after 9 pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a dry day, it had not stopped pouring! James and I were relaxing there going over the sports results, at the ready for the 6th call for the day to come in. Before long we had the call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Sidlesham Common and put petrol in a diesel Porsche lease car. The unfortunate lady was pretty agitated apparently, saying "I can not believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately do happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from our van, we could reach the lady right away. The wrong fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home contented and a lot less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in West Sussex well done in my books!

Incorrect fuel in your car in Sidlesham Common? You have come to the correct people. We are here to aid you in your emergency and get you running once again with our specialist fuel removal services.

Services We Offer:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in the event that you have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It tends to be devastating to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most definitely do not start the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in West Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Sidlesham Common (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill the car. They are also able to fix the common issues which can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Sidlesham Common - Sidlesham Common Fuel Drain

I'd had a perfect day golfing on my afternoon off and was feeling cheerful the following working day as I headed out to help a young family vacationing in Sidlesham Common. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel in their MG, and they were approximately an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the lady berating her man for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this situation occurs everyday in West Sussex and that it is nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he all the same had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove away I mouthed farewell and wondered what her indoors would tell me if ever I made the same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
