It was before eight pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were seated going over the recent football results, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Telham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo hire car. The poor thing was quite troubled apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things sadly happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from our van, we could find the woman without delay. The bad fuel was extracted and she could return to the motel she was living in. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive away relaxed and less anxious. Another misfuel correction in East Sussex done well in my mind!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over East Sussex we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously be careful not to crank the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to address in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is going to bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases pretty swiftly.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the rear of the garden full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in East Sussex to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Telham (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your vehicle if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to deal with any of the standard problems which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Telham - Telham Fuel Rescue

A motorist had broken down off a street in Telham. His Renault motor had stopped functioning and he'd no idea what was faulty until he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not know that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the day before and that must have been precisely why.
