Below are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout West Sussex we have seen progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not being totally sure how to use it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely never switch on the motor - not even to shift it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can certainly produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations quite quickly.

Remember however that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
