It was close to 8 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and me were seated there commenting on the weekend's football, at the ready for the next telephone call to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Bexhill and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes rental. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to arrive at the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could return to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home satisfied and not so stressed. Another misfuel correction in East Sussex done well in my books!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around East Sussex we are identifying more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Any time you get in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will likely bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations rather simply.

Take note that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking spot we are able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties in East Sussex to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Bexhill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to handle the standard problems that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Bexhill - Bexhill Wrong Fuel

A person phoned us from his home on a road in Bexhill. He explained, "My car (a Peugeot) is not starting and is creating dreadful noises when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then believed he would resolve the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, performed the drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
