It was around five pm on a Friday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and me were seated there talking over the weekend's rugby, at the ready for the sixth telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Shovers Green and put petrol in her diesel MINI lease car. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe spot and, since it was only a few miles away from us, we were able to get to her swiftly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home calm and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in East Sussex well done in my mind!

Assisting you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over East Sussex we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you discover youself to be in this position don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts have the practical know-how and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will likely bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances very simply.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
