It was about seven pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were relaxing commenting on the football, waiting for the 6th job of the day to arrive. Eventually we received a call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the BP filling station in Tilgate and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo hire car in error. She was rather agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, seeing that it was only a short distance off from where we were, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off calm and a lot less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in West Sussex well done in my mind!

Listed here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do in the event that you?ve put Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid composed of a blend of ionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).Adblue is certainly damaging to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Should you end up in this scenario don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the technical skills and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is going to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases fairly swiftly.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in West Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages.
