It was just before 10 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were seated there commenting on the weekend's footy results, ready for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Addingham and put petrol in a diesel Nissan rental. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed it seemed, saying "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe position and, seeing that it was only a few miles away from our van, we could reach the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and less apprehensive. Yet another job in West Yorkshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

In West Yorkshire we are noticing a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not knowing the right way to use it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will likely bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations fairly swiftly.

Be aware however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
