It was close to 7 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were resting there talking about the recent rugby, waiting for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Woodingdean and filled petrol in a diesel Volkswagen lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, and that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure position and, since it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at her swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at.

Our Services:
Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.
AdBlue Contamination
Throughout East Sussex we are discovering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out immediately. And most certainly take care not to start the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important matter to take care of in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases pretty simply.
Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Got a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in East Sussex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

We're able to get out to refill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home.

Recent Fuel Drains in Woodingdean
A number of the common things we get from many of our technicians in Woodingdean:
Now I'm certainly not so hot for doing work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left the family after having a lovely Sunday roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a man who filled the wrong petrol in his Porsche. He was only in Woodingdean therefore I was on scene almost immediately. Just as I arrived at the rear of the car and stepped out he told me "Praise the Lord! I had my mind on other considerations and did not realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I created problems because of starting it?" I determined generally there probably should not be any kind of damage and also I would remove the fuel immediately for him. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the appropriate fuel, and yet another delighted customer was able to continue on his journey with no bother. He could not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what makes carrying out work on Sundays in East Sussex just a little bit better to me!
