It was after 8 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and me were seated going over the football rankings, ready for the seventh job that day to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the BP petrol station in Fairlight Cove and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Ford rental car. The poor thing was rather agitated it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things do happen. She managed to get the car to a secure spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes from us, we could find her swiftly. The bad fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home calm and not so stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in East Sussex well done in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

In East Sussex we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to work with it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Should you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts have the specialised skills and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol will cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations rather expediently.

Take note however that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank laying at the rear of the garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in East Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Fairlight Cove (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill the car. They are also able to deal with the most common troubles that could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
