This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In East Sussex we have identified a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not understanding how to to make use of (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And definitely don't turn over the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. If you did start the car you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases very expediently.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
