It was around 7 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were resting there talking over the recent golf results, waiting around for the sixth job of the day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Battle and put petrol in a diesel Dacia lease car. She was quite troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that things like this can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from where we were, we could get to her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off calm and less stressed. One more fuel drain in East Sussex done well in my mind!

Services We Offer:

Below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around East Sussex we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of motorists not understanding the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the car.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And definitely don't switch on the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases rather easily.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container placed in the rear of your garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in East Sussex to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Battle (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your vehicle. They will fix the most common problems which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Battle - Battle Petrol in Diesel

I had appreciated a great afternoon golfing during my holiday and was feeling delighted with myself the following working day as I headed out to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Battle. They had pulled over after adding petrol into their BMW, and were close to an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and laughed while I heard to the lady chastising her husband for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this takes place quite frequently in East Sussex and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be concerned about, and yet he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. Poor lad. Anyhow, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove away I shouted hasta la vista and considered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I'd personally never live it down!
