Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over East Sussex we have identified increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously take care not to start the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking area. Assuming you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important situation to address in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel may produce idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in East Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Seacox Heath (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your car. They are also able to take care of any of the common problems that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Seacox Heath - Seacox Heath Petrol in Diesel

A person called us from Seacox Heath to say he had foolishly piped petrol into his diesel Mitsubishi. "What a pain! I can't believe I put petrol in my nice diesel car!" It only took the engineer approximately 50 minutes to fully drain the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. He completely purged the fuel system and after that put clean fuel in the car. The customer was delighted and it hadn't cost him dealership rates to have the task properly completed.
