It was about five pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and me were sitting there talking over the weekend's golf rankings, waiting around for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Shoreham-by-Sea and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat hire car. The unfortunate thing was rather troubled it seemed, stating "I can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, and also that such things sadly can happen. She managed to get the car into a safe space and, since it was just a few miles off from us, we were able to get to the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and a lot less stressed. Another job in West Sussex well done in my mind!

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any related issues.
AdBlue Contamination
All around West Sussex we are discovering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And definitely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important situation to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances very easily.
You should know that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in West Sussex for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we can drain it for you.
Out of Fuel Services
Run out of fuel in Shoreham-by-Sea (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your car or truck. They will handle the standard troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.
