Services Our Company Offers:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout West Sussex we have found progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And most definitely never switch on the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases quite simply.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the rear of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business premises in West Sussex for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Rudgwick (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your automobile if you are having difficulty 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 the right fuel (at pump price) and fill up your automobile. They can also fix the normal problems that could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
