It was before 7 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and me were relaxing there commenting on the recent tennis, at the ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Snagshall and filled petrol in her diesel Hyundai hire car by mistake. She was rather affected by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was running a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected position and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from our van, we were able to arrive at the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and much less worried. A misfuel correction in East Sussex done well in my opinion!

Our Services:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around East Sussex we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people being unsure of how to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will often trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases rather easily.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in East Sussex to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Snagshall (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your car. They will take care of any of the common troubles that could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
