Our Fields of Expertise:

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In West Sussex we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And most certainly do not start up the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important matter to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel will often contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container sitting at the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in West Sussex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Ashington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete West Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your car or truck. They are also able to fix any of the typical troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
