Services We Offer:

Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

In East Sussex we have noticed more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained right away. And absolutely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In the event that you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

I turned up at their location and laughed while I heard to the woman telling her husband off for turning out to be so daft.
