It was after 7 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and me were relaxing commenting on the weekend's football results, waiting around for the 6th call to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Widford and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volvo lease car. She was very irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure spot and, as it was only a few minutes off from our van, we were able to reach the woman almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the motel she was living in.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Hertfordshire we are identifying a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists not understanding how to work with it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And absolutely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol will bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases quite swiftly.

Take note however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Hertfordshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon fishing during my off day and was feeling contented with myself the next working day as I was on the way to assist a new couple who were away in Widford. They pulled over after filling the wrong fuel into their Mercedes, and were approximately an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and laughed as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for actually being so foolish. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs frequently in Hertfordshire and that it's nothing to fret about, and yet he all the same got an ear bashing. I felt sorry for the lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While they drove away I mouthed goodbye and wondered what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally never live it down!

Recent Fuel Drains in Widford

Stories from our Widford team:

A youngster who had only just passed his driving test had misfueled his Mitsubishi by getting unleaded in the diesel at the petrol station in Widford. He said, "This is the third occasion I have filled up my vehicle since I bought it and I do not know how to proceed." He was also anxious because his father had just paid for the car. He discovered our company on the internet and so called it right away, scared about what he needed to do. Our man on the phones told him that we would be with him within forty-five minutes and to not start the car while he waited. We finished the fuel drain on his car and he mentioned how astonished he was that it was handled so rapidly and no problem whatsoever.

Wrong Fuel Drain Widford - Widford Fuel Drain

A customer from Widford with a full car of little ones in her diesel Smart had filled her vehicle with £42 of petrol at the Shell station. She called us sobbing and really upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what would happen to her car because of it. We told her that all would be fine and that she would be back up and running very quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our engineer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the kids on board."
