Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All over East Sussex we are finding more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously don't crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank is likely to result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations very quickly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close 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 undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in East Sussex to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Fuel Drain Portslade-by-Sea - Portslade-by-Sea Wrong Fuel

I'd had a wonderful day hiking during my afternoon off and felt delighted with myself the following morning as I headed out to aid a young couple away in Portslade-by-Sea. They'd pulled over after filling diesel into their Volvo, and they were close to half an hour away. I emerged at their position and laughed while I listened to the girl telling her husband off for being so foolish. "Just how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing goes on continuously in East Sussex and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, however he in spite of everything got his ear bent. Poor guy. Anyways, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
