Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated issues.
AdBlue In Diesel
All over East Sussex we are discovering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by drivers not being aware of the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the vehicle.
So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases pretty easily.
You should know though that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel.

Testimonies from our Cross in Hand staff:
I am not too inclined to doing work weekends, and a while back was no different. I had just left the family filled with a tasty lunch made for me by the wife, and I was on the way to deal with a man who had filled the wrong petrol in his Volvo. He was stationed in Cross in Hand thus I was with him soon. As I pulled up behind the car and got out he said to me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my attention on other considerations and did not grasp that I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any kind of harm through running it?" I said truth be told there should not be any damage and also that I would drain the contaminated fuel immediately. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and thus yet another pleased motorist was able to carry on with his trip without the hassle. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and that tends to make carrying out work on Sundays in East Sussex that little easier for me personally!
