Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over West Sussex we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can correct all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel is likely to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases quite swiftly.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business premises in West Sussex to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a garage, if we can reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Tilgate (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your car. They will deal with the typical troubles which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Tilgate - Tilgate Wrong Fuel Drain

A couple of days ago a gentleman contacted us because his Skoda cut out in the middle of a street in Tilgate. He had by mistake put unleaded in the diesel vehicle and was only able to drive so far as the road before having to pull over. It was still early in the day and our fuel drainer, who lives nearby, arrived with him in about 15 minutes. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again in to the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your fast response, especially at 6 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
