AdBlue In Diesel

In East Sussex we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not being totally sure how to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And absolutely never start up the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel will cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases quite easily.

Take note that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank laying in the rear of the garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in East Sussex to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Etchingham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to fix the usual issues which may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Etchingham - Etchingham Wrong Fuel in Car

A person phoned us from Etchingham to state that he had stupidly pumped unleaded in his diesel Renault. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put petrol in my nice diesel car!" It took the fuel drainer about fifty minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. He totally cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was very pleased and it didn't cost him car dealership prices to have the work professionally done.

Recent Fuel Drains in Etchingham

Just a few of the routine stories we get from our engineers in Etchingham:

A teen who had only recently passed his driving test had wrong fuelled his MINI by getting petrol in the diesel car at the service station near Etchingham. He said, "This is the third occasion I have filled up my car since I got it and I do not know how to handle it." He was also worried since his father had just got him the car. He discovered us on the net and so called it without delay, frightened about what he needed to do. Our guy on the phones advised him that we could be on scene within 45 minutes and to not start his vehicle while waiting. We carried out the drain on his car and he said how astonished he was it was handled so quickly and without any problem whatsoever.

Vehicle Misfuel Etchingham - Etchingham Wrong Fuel Drain

A motorist who had unluckily put unleaded in his diesel Skoda phoned us for assistance at the BP petrol station in Etchingham. He had decided to top up before continuing on to the nearby recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded rather than diesel which probably wasn't a great way to begin to our holiday break." It was absolutely no problem whatsoever for our technical engineer to go along and carry out the fuel drain. We hope everyone had a good holiday.

Wrong Fuel Drain Etchingham - Etchingham Wrong Fuel Assist

Last friday a gentleman contacted us right after his BMW died along a road in Etchingham. He had inadvertently put unleaded in the diesel motor and was only able to drive so far as the street before being forced to give up. It was still early in the day and our engineer, who stays not far away, reached him in less than 10 minutes. We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again into the car. "Thank you for your fast response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I really appreciate it."
