It was before 8 pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting discussing the recent golf results, waiting for the next job that day to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Rookery Hill and put petrol in a diesel Mazda rental car. She was quite agitated it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from us, we could reach her swiftly.

Listed here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout East Sussex we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at once. And of course be careful not to start the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in East Sussex for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.
