Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout East Sussex we are identifying progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you get in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts have the specialised skills and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank placed at the back of your garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in East Sussex to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Portslade-by-Sea (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up the car. They are also able to fix any of the usual problems which could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Fuel Drain Portslade-by-Sea - Portslade-by-Sea Fuel Removal

I'd had a perfect afternoon golfing on my off day and was feeling delighted the next morning as I set out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Portslade-by-Sea. They broken down after filling diesel in their Mercedes, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled as I heard to the lady berating her husband for being so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this takes place quite frequently in East Sussex and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I drained all of the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my missus would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

A teen who had only recently got his licence had misfueled his Volkswagen by putting unleaded in his diesel at the filling station near Portslade-by-Sea. He said, "This is just the second occasion I have put fuel in my vehicle since I purchased it and I do not know what to do." He was scared as his step father had only just bought him the car. He found our company on the web and so called it without delay, scared about what he needed to do. Our person on the phones advised him that we could be there in forty-five minutes and to not move the vehicle while he waited. We did the drain on his vehicle and he said how surprised he was that it was dealt with so quickly and without consequence at all.

A woman from Portslade-by-Sea with her kids in her diesel Kia had put £50 of petrol at the BP filling station. She called us weeping and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and did not know what might happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that all should be okay and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the little ones on board."
