It was after six pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's sports results, ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Hazards Green and put petrol in a diesel Vauxhall hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was somewhat troubled apparently, stating "I cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, also that these things do happen. She was able to move the car to a protected spot and, because it was just a few minutes away from us, we were able to find the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could return to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off satisfied and a lot less anxious. Another fuel drain in East Sussex well done in my books!

Here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All around East Sussex we have identified a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not understanding how to to make use of (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In case you have started the car you would very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel is going to result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations pretty quickly.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank placed at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in East Sussex to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, provided that we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Hazards Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car. They will be able to take care of the usual troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
