It was before seven pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and me were resting there going over the sports rankings, at the ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Catsfield and put petrol in a diesel Dacia hire car by mistake. She was rather irritated apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, because it was just a few miles away from where we were, we could arrive at the woman fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Although we got really wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and less worried.

Our Areas of Competency :

We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout East Sussex we are discovering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by drivers not knowing how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out right away. And most definitely do not turn over the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is going to result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container laying at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business properties in East Sussex to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a garage, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Catsfield (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They can also handle any of the normal troubles that can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Catsfield - Catsfield Wrong Fuel in Car

I appreciated a fantastic day hiking on my afternoon off and felt cheerful the next working day as I set off to assist a new couple who were vacationing in Catsfield. They'd conked out after putting petrol in their Ford, and were approximately an hour away. I showed up at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for being so daft. "Exactly how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this goes on everyday in East Sussex and that it is nothing to be anxious about, however he all the same got an earful by his better half. Poor lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive away I waved good bye and considered what my wife would ask me in the event that I made the very same error... I'd never ever live it down!
