It was about six pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were relaxing going over the weekend's footy results, waiting for the next job to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Coldwaltham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Jaguar rental by mistake. She was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was no more than a few miles away from our van, we could arrive at the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could return to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away calm and less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in West Sussex done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Sussex we are discovering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not understanding how to work with it (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will likely contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

Fuel Drain Coldwaltham - Coldwaltham Fuel Rescue

A man phoned us from his house on a road in Coldwaltham. He pronounced, "My car (a Ford) is not starting up and is generating dreadful sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up once again with untainted Diesel. He told us he'd be sure to explain to people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
