Here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over East Sussex we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the car.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it right away. And certainly do not turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In case you have started the vehicle you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank may produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases very easily.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in East Sussex to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages.
