It was around ten pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there commenting on the rugby rankings, ready for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Acol and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Volkswagen rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather agitated apparently, telling me "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was just a short distance off from us, we could reach the woman almost instantly.

AdBlue In Your Diesel
All around Kent we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle every type of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank will likely contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases pretty expediently.
Keep in mind that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted 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 close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Kent to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Recent Fuel Drains in Acol
Tales from our Acol team:
Now I'm not ever so hot for doing work on Sundays, and the other day was the same. I'd only just left home after having a magnificent Sunday roast prepared for us by the wife, and I was on my way to assist a gentleman after he had filled the wrong fuel in his Smart. He was only in Acol thus I was there very quickly. As I drove up at the car and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Lord! I stupidly had my attention on stuff and did not ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I caused some problems simply by starting it?" I explained there should not be any kind of damage and also I would personally drain the wrong fuel immediately. Obviously I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and thus one more content motorist was able to continue on their trip without fuss. He did not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what can make earning a living on weekends in Kent a little better in my opinion!
