It was about seven pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and me were seated there going over the weekend's golf, ready for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Coggins Mill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes hire car by mistake. The poor lady was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, as it was only a few minutes away from us, we could arrive at her without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and a lot less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in East Sussex done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Competency :

Listed here are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In East Sussex we are encountering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at once. And definitely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to shift it to a parking area. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases very quickly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank in the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in East Sussex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Coggins Mill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your car. They will fix the common issues that can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
