Services We Give:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

In East Sussex we have identified a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to people being unsure of the way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the car.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will often contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances very expediently.

You should know though that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in East Sussex to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Uckfield (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the standard troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
