It was before 5 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing talking about the weekend's tennis rankings, ready for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. In due time we received the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Herstmonceux and filled petrol in a diesel BMW rental car in error. She was quite irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, also that things like this often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a safe spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance away from us, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off satisfied and a lot less worried. Yet another fuel drain in East Sussex done well in my books!

Services We Give:

Assisting you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It is actually devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing devastating and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily handle every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to deal with in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations fairly simply.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in East Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Herstmonceux (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They can also handle the most common troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
