Eventually we received the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Winchelsea and put petrol in a diesel Vauxhall rental. She was fairly irritated apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I have messed up the car!

Our Areas of Expertise:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It tends to be devastating to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can certainly produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations pretty quickly.

Take note though that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in East Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.
