It was about six pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and me were seated commenting on the sports results, waiting around for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Seabrook and put petrol in a diesel Jaguar rental. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected position and, because it was only a few miles off from our van, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and not so worried. Yet another job in Kent done well in my books!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in the event that you have put Adblue in your Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you started the car with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be pulled into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, causing serious and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

Give us a call if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel will often bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.
