It was before eight pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain!

Inevitably we got the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Upper Astley and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes rental. She was pretty agitated apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this unfortunately do happen.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will often bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances very easily.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Wrong Fuel Drain Upper Astley - Upper Astley Vehicle Misfuel

This was an unsociable hour to be up. It was about 2am and almost noone was stirring. It had been pretty dead up to now, and me and Mark were sitting reading a number of old articles. That was a rare quiet moment in Shropshire. Actually it was that tranquil that the moment the phone inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The person told me: "I have only just ended my evening shift and stupidly put petrol in the diesel Volkswagen". I told him to inform us where exactly he was and we headed out, arriving in Upper Astley under half an hour later. The fuel was removed from the vehicle. He said thanks for arriving so fast. As we were returning home we noticed two ladies at the edge of the road who seemed like they had a flat. As a result we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.
