It was close to 8 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and me were relaxing commenting on the sports rankings, ready for the seventh fuel drain to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Hinton and filled petrol in a diesel Skoda rental car in error. She was very affected it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things regrettably happen.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Shropshire we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people not knowing how to use it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can certainly trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations rather swiftly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel.
