It was around eight pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Brian and I were resting talking about the recent sports rankings, prepared for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Groombridge and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes rental car by mistake. The poor thing was fairly troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, and that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to get the car into a secure position and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from the office, we could reach her right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in East Sussex well done in my books!

Provided Services: Our Specialties:

Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? Adblue tends to be harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be dragged into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
