It was about 7 pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were resting there talking about the golf rankings, waiting around for the next call of the day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Bexhill and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Smart hire car. She was very troubled apparently, crying "I simply can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a protected position and, because it was just a short distance off from the office, we were able to find the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she could go home to the motel she was staying in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home relaxed and not so worried. One more fuel drain in East Sussex well done in my mind!

Services Our Company Offers:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around East Sussex we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people not understanding how to to make use of (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol will likely cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations fairly swiftly.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

A guy had stopped just off a street in Bexhill. His Suzuki car had stopped operating and he had no clue what was the problem until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I can not believe that I didn't realise that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten no sleep the evening before and that could have been the key reason why.
