Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout East Sussex we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course never switch on the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to handle in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will likely trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very easily.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of your premises with old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in East Sussex to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Iford (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your car. They will handle the most common problems which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Iford - Iford Fuel Drain

A couple of days ago a driver telephoned us right after his Citroen cut out on a street in Iford. He had accidentally put the incorrect fuel in the diesel motor and got as far as the street before having to pull up. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who resides locally, was with him in less than 20 minutes. We managed to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back in the vehicle. "Many thanks to you for your timely response, particularly at 5 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
