Provided Services:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do if you have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly take care not to switch on the motor - not even to move it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to handle in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel will often bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we can access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your premises with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in East Sussex to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Hankham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home.
