Here are the top services we deliver to our customers.
AdBlue Contamination
Throughout East Sussex we have seen progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.
Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most definitely don't start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant condition to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases pretty expediently.
Be aware however that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel tank placed in the rear of your garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in East Sussex for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.
Out of Fuel Assistance
Out of fuel in East Guldeford (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They will be able to handle the standard troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

A lady living in East Guldeford called us as soon as she tried to get her wrong fuelled vehicle to work.

She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm really relieved you repaired my car."
