It was before seven pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were relaxing going over the weekend's tennis results, waiting for the 6th call for the day to arrive. Finally we got a call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Southover and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volkswagen rental car. The poor thing was quite irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this often happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe position and, since it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we could find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home calm and not so concerned. One more job in East Sussex well done in my mind!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:
These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In your Fuel
All around East Sussex we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers being unsure of how to use it (pay attention: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the specialised knowledge and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will often lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty swiftly.
You should know however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Got a fuel container laying in the back of your garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in East Sussex to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we can empty it.
Re-Fueling Service
Run out of fuel in Southover (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They can also fix the usual problems which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

A woman had conked out on a street, Southover having just misfueled. She was crying and fairly troubled as she had put £42 of petrol in her diesel car.

By the time we reached her she was not troubled any more and was pretty interested in observing our technician do the fuel drain on her Ford.
