It was about 7 pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were seated there going over the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the seventh job for the day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Seaford and put the wrong fuel in a diesel MG hire car in error. She was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to arrive at the lady right away. The bad fuel was drained so she could return to the motel she was living in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off satisfied and not so stressed. One more misfuel correction in East Sussex done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Specialties:

We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over East Sussex we are discovering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases very quickly.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container in the back of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in East Sussex to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Seaford (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.
