It was just before five pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and I were relaxing there talking over the sports rankings, waiting around for the next telephone call of the day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the BP petrol station in Catsfield and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda hire car. The poor lady was rather troubled it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected position and, because it was no more than a short distance off from us, we were able to get to her right away. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and less worried. A fuel drain in East Sussex well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Competence :

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

In East Sussex we are noticing an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not being aware of the way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank is likely to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank in the rear of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in East Sussex to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Catsfield (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your car. They will deal with the most common problems that might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
