It was before five pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were sitting there talking over the footy, ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Freshfield and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Smart rental in error. She was somewhat agitated it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance from us, we were able to reach the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and less worried. One more misfuel correction in Merseyside done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Merseyside we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out immediately. And most certainly don't switch on the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can easily cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations very easily.

Remember though that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Merseyside to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.
