We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout East Sussex we have seen progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant matter to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can easily result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations rather expediently.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in East Sussex to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Windmill Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to handle any of the common issues which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
