Our Areas of Expertise :

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around East Sussex we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not understanding the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it right away. And absolutely never crank the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to take care of in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will often result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances pretty expediently.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in East Sussex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Fuel Removal Barcombe Cross - Barcombe Cross Wrong Fuel in Car

I enjoyed a great day cycling during the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I was en route to assist a young couple away in Barcombe Cross. They'd broken down after filling petrol in their Mazda, and they were roughly an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and laughed as I heard to the lady telling her husband off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this situation takes place frequently in East Sussex and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, nevertheless he all the same had an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. In any case, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the very same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!
