It was just after five pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were resting going over the tennis rankings, prepared for the seventh telephone call that day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Little Fencote and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda rental car by mistake. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe that I've messed up the vehicle!

AdBlue Contamination

In North Yorkshire we have noticed progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to people being unsure of how to use it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important situation to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is likely to lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances rather expediently.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
