These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout East Sussex we are finding a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of motorists not understanding how to to make use of (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the car.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And absolutely don't start up the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If you have started the car you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is likely to cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances fairly easily.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in East Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Wrong Fuel Drain Magham Down - Magham Down Wrong Fuel Drain

I'd had a perfect afternoon hiking during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the following day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Magham Down. They'd conked out after filling diesel in their Land Rover, and they were around an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself as I heard to the woman berating her spouse for actually being so confused. "How could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass all the time in East Sussex and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, but he still had an earful by his wife. Poor guy. Anyway, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted farewell and thought about what her indoors would tell me if ever I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
