It was just before 9 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and I were seated there commenting on the recent sports, waiting around for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Plumpton Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel MG hire car by mistake. The poor lady was very irritated apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was just a few minutes away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in East Sussex done well in my opinion!

Assisting you get back on the road is our number 1 goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around East Sussex we have seen progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from people not being aware of the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Any time you find yourself in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the specialised skills and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases fairly easily.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in East Sussex to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Plumpton Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix any of the standard problems which may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
