Fuel Rescue Portslade-by-Sea - Portslade-by-Sea Fuel Drain

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and we were en route to assist an old woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Lexus in Portslade-by-Sea. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up in a backwater road along the way to see her family. I popped the location straight into the Satnav and got there inside 60 minutes. I got to the car and drained the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was working she said to me, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel since I had only purchased it a few days back after my former car, which I had had for more than 25 years, inevitably died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a precious East Sussex woman!

Our Areas of Experience :

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout East Sussex we are noticing more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously take care not to switch on the engine - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel is going to lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases very swiftly.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel.
