It was just before 7 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry night, it had not ceased raining! Paul and me were resting there going over the footy rankings, waiting around for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we had the call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Aston on Clun and filled petrol in her diesel BMW hire car in error. She was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to get the car into a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we could get to the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and less concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Shropshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Shropshire we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not understanding the way to use it (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Phone us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel can potentially produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases very expediently.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying at the back of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Shropshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we can drain it.
