It was around 5 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and me were sitting there going over the recent football, waiting for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we received the phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Windmill Hill and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Kia rental car in error. The poor lady was very irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that things like this regrettably can happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from where we were, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off satisfied and not so worried. A job in East Sussex well done in my books!

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed if you have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made out of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will be squirted into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

Call us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel will likely result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases rather simply.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in East Sussex for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, as long as we can access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Windmill Hill (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car. They can also fix the common troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Windmill Hill - Windmill Hill Fuel Drain

A gentleman rang us from his home on a road in Windmill Hill. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Renault) is not running and is generating awful noises when I turn the key."
