It was just after five pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated discussing the weekend's footy, ready for the seventh fuel drain to come in. Finally we had the call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Spithurst and put petrol in a diesel MINI rental car. She was fairly irritated apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure area and, because it was just a few minutes away from us, we were able to reach her swiftly. The wrong fuel was removed and she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got very wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home contented and less concerned. One more job in East Sussex well done in my books!

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around East Sussex we have noticed increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to crank the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can potentially lead to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations fairly swiftly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in East Sussex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Spithurst (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They can also deal with the usual problems that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
