It was after 6 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's football rankings, waiting around for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Blackwell and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen rental car. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a safe area and, because it was only a few miles off from our van, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away satisfied and much less concerned. One more fuel drain in West Sussex well done in my mind!

Vehicle Misfuel Blackwell - Blackwell Vehicle Misfuel
I had appreciated a fantastic afternoon golfing on the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I headed out to aid a young family who were on holiday in Blackwell. They'd conked out after filling diesel in their Toyota, and they were roughly an hour away. I emerged at their position and laughed as I listened to the wife berating her partner for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this kind of thing takes place constantly in West Sussex and that it's truly nothing to fret about, and yet he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his wife. Poor lad. At any rate, I drained the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed goodbye and pondered on what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the very same error... I would personally never ever live it down!

AdBlue In Diesel
All over West Sussex we are finding an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not knowing the way to work with it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And of course be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to shift it to a parking place. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel may well contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances rather swiftly.
Remember though that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Got a fuel container sitting at the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in West Sussex to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

A few examples:
Now I am not very inclined to running on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had only just departed home filled with a magnificent Sunday roast prepared by the wife, and I was on my way to deal with a fellow who had filled the wrong petrol in his Suzuki. He was somewhere in Blackwell therefore it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I pulled up at the car and got out he said to me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my concentration on something else and didn't realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted some harm simply by starting it?" I said that truth be told there shouldn't be any harm and also I'd personally drain the fuel as quickly as possible for him. It goes without saying that I drained the fuel from the vehicle and filled up with some suitable fuel, and then another happy client had the ability to carry on with his travelling without any bother. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this is actually what can make operating on Sundays in West Sussex just that little bit easier in my opinion!
Fuel Rescue Blackwell - Blackwell Vehicle Misfuel
A lady from Blackwell with a full car of children in her diesel Chevrolet had filled her vehicle with £20 of petrol at the Texaco service station. She called us sobbing and genuinely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that all should be okay and that she would be in action in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our engineer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the kids on board."
