It was about 5 pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and I were resting commenting on the recent tennis results, ready for the 6th call to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Newhaven and put petrol in a diesel Kia lease car. The unfortunate lady was very distressed it seemed, saying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to get the car to a secure spot and, because it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to reach the customer right away. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got very wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive away satisfied and a lot less worried.

Services We Provide:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout East Sussex we have identified progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not being aware of how to work with it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel is likely to cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances quite quickly.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and business properties in East Sussex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Newhaven (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your automobile. They will be able to handle any of the typical issues that could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
