Below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over East Sussex we have seen a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not being aware of how to use it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And most definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank may well bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations quite quickly.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in East Sussex for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Alfriston (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the normal problems that could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Alfriston - Alfriston Wrong Fuel Doctor

A customer had stopped just off a road in Alfriston. His BMW engine had stopped operating and he'd no clue what was the problem right up until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten no sleep the night before and that could have been the key reason why.
