Our Areas of Expertise:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over East Sussex we have noticed increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely take care not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the car you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can potentially result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations rather simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container in the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in East Sussex to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Rottingdean (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) to fill up the car. They are also able to fix any of the standard troubles that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Rottingdean - Rottingdean Fuel Drain

I had a terrific evening cycling on my afternoon off and felt pleased with myself the following day as I headed out to help a young family who were away in Rottingdean. They'd stopped after adding the wrong fuel in their Citroen, and they were approximately half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this occurs on daily basis in East Sussex and that it's nothing to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate boy. At any rate, I drained out all the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my wife would say to me if ever I made the exact same blunder... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Rottingdean

Some reviews:

Now I am not very interested in carrying out work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I'd just come away from the family following a magnificent roast cooked by the wife, and I was on my way to help a guy after he put the incorrect fuel in his Citroen. He was only in Rottingdean hence I arrived on scene soon. As I drove up right behind the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Praise God! I had my attention on other stuff and failed to perceive I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about any damage as a result of starting it?" I said that truth be told there should not be any problems and that also I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained at once. Needless to say I drained the fuel from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and so one more satisfied client was able to carry on with his trip without difficulty. The guy couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what makes carrying out work on Sundays in East Sussex just a tiny bit better for me!

Wrong Fuel Drain Rottingdean - Rottingdean Wrong Fuel

This was certainly an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and hardly anyone was about. It had become pretty quiet so far, and John and I were loafing about browsing a couple of old magazines. This was an uncommon quiet hour in East Sussex. It was indeed that relaxing that when the phone finally rang it made me start! The customer told me: "I only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my diesel BMW". We told him to tell us just where the vehicle was located and we set off, arriving in Rottingdean no more than an hour later. The fuel was cleared from the car. He thanked us profusely for getting there so promptly. As we were coming back to the office we found two women on the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we got out to change it, much to their delight.

Last monday a motorist telephoned us because his Land Rover broke down in the middle of a street in Rottingdean. He had by accident put the wrong fuel in the diesel motor and drove so far as the road before being forced to halt. It was yet early in the morning and our technical engineer, who lives not far away, arrived with him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to get rid of the wrong fuel and put clean diesel once again in to the vehicle. "Many kudos to you for your immediate response, and in particular at 3 a.m., I am grateful for it."
