Petrol in your diesel car in Rose Hill? You've come to the right place. We are here to aid you in this emergency and get you going once more with our specialist wrong fuel removal assistance.

It was about eight pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped raining! Mark and me were sitting going over the footy, at the ready for the seventh telephone call for the day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Rose Hill and filled petrol in her diesel BMW rental car in error. She was fairly affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected position and, because it was only a short distance from our van, we were able to arrive at the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off relaxed and less apprehensive. Yet another job in East Sussex done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise :

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

In East Sussex we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Give us a call if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can easily trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both situations rather easily.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in East Sussex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Rose Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to handle the standard troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Rose Hill - Rose Hill Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had a terrific afternoon cycling on the weekend and felt cheerful the following day as I was en route to assist a young family who were on holiday in Rose Hill. They had pulled over after inserting petrol in their Mazda, and they were roughly half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the gal telling her man off for being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this situation takes place all the time in East Sussex and that it's actually nothing at all to fret about, however he all the same got his ear bent by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyways, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good-bye and pondered on what my wife would tell me if ever I made the same mistake... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
