It was just before 9 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, prepared for the seventh telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Hastings and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen lease car in error. She was rather agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to relocate the car into a secure spot and, as it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home calm and not so concerned. One more misfuel correction in East Sussex well done in my mind!

Just had a great night's sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Tuesday and I was en route to help an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel Land Rover in Hastings. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and pulled up in a backwater road en route to see her godchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and got there inside an hour. I got to the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she said, "I have been becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I'd just got it a couple of days ago after my former one, which I owned for in excess of thirty years, eventually died". I completed the drain and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. What a lovely East Sussex lady!

Our Fields of Expertise:
This is what we do best.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over East Sussex we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from motorists not knowing how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.
Now, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it right away. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.
You should know that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking bay we are able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel container lying in the back of your garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in East Sussex for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

We will get out to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home.

They will handle the standard issues that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
Vehicle Misfuel Hastings - Hastings Fuel Drain
A gentleman had conked out just off a road in Hastings. His MG car had ceased working and he had no clue what was awry until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I can not believe that I didn't realise that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got very little sleep the evening before and that must have been the key reason why.

Now I'm not necessarily that inclined to carrying out work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had just left home after a lovely dinner made by the missus, and I was en route to help a guy after he put the wrong petrol in his Citroen. He was only in Hastings therefore it wasn't long before I got to him. Just as I pulled up right behind the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my mind on other stuff and did not perceive I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought on some problems through starting it?" I determined there probably should not be any harm and that also I'd drain the contaminated fuel immediately for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with the correct fuel, and so one more contented motorist had the ability to continue their travelling without the hassle. He could not stop thanking me, and this tends to make working on Sundays in East Sussex just a little bit less painful in my opinion!
Wrong Fuel Drain Hastings - Hastings Wrong Fuel in Car
This was most definitely what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 2:30am and almost noone was about. It had become pretty quiet so far, and Brian and I were relaxing reading through a couple of old magazines. This was an uncommon tranquil moment in East Sussex. It was indeed so calm that the instant the phone inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist on the phone stated: "I've only just ended my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a Ford in error". I told him to let us know where exactly he was and we set off, arriving in Hastings only an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the car. He said thank you for getting there so promptly. As we were coming back home we spotted two young women at the side of the road who appeared to have a flat. Accordingly we got out to change it, to their elation.
