Our Areas of Expertise :
These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:
AdBlue Contamination
All around East Sussex we have encountered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not understanding how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
In case you end up in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the technical skills and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations rather quickly.
You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel tank placed in the rear of your garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business properties in East Sussex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.
Out of Fuel Service
Run out of fuel in Wadhurst (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill the car. They will be able to deal with any of the normal troubles which may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Wadhurst - Wadhurst Wrong Fuel Doctor
Just had a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 on a warm Wednesday and we were off to assist an older lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel MG in Wadhurst. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was broken down in a country road on route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was working she said, "I am becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel because I had only purchased it a couple of days ago when my previous one, which I had owned for over thirty years, finally died on me". I finished the job and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a lovely East Sussex woman!

Tales from our own Wadhurst technicians:
I am not necessarily too enthusiastic about running weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left the family following a tasty roast made by the missus, and I was off to deal with a gentleman who had filled the wrong petrol in his Renault. He was only in Wadhurst hence it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. As I pulled up at the vehicle and got out he told me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my mind on something else and didn't realise I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought on some problems because of starting it?" I said that there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also that I'd remove the fuel at once for him. Needless to say I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and then one more contented customer could continue on their travelling without the bother. The man couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what can make carrying out work on Sundays in East Sussex that little bit better in my opinion!
Petrol in Diesel Wadhurst - Wadhurst Wrong Fuel Doctor
This really was what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It had become pretty dead so far, and me and Ryan were relaxing browsing a couple of old articles. That was a rare quiet hour in East Sussex. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the instant the telephone rang it made me jump! The motorist said: "I've just completed my overnight shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a Dacia". We told him to tell us just where the vehicle was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Wadhurst no more than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he thanked us for showing up so rapidly. While we were returning home we noticed two ladies on the side of the street who seemed like they suffered a flat. As a result we pulled up to change it, much to their delight.
