It was around 9 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were resting discussing the recent football, at the ready for the sixth job to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Monks Gate and filled petrol in her diesel stylish Mitsubishi Excel rental car. The unfortunate lady was fairly agitated it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing that it was only a short distance off from where we were, we were able to get to her without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home calm and not so anxious. A fuel drain in West Sussex done well in my books!

We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to address in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances pretty expediently.
Take note however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.
