It was after ten pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were sitting commenting on the recent tennis rankings, ready for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Bradford and filled petrol in a diesel Mitsubishi lease car. She was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things sadly often happen. She was able to get the car into a protected area and, as it was just a few miles off from us, we were able to reach the customer right away. The bad fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying at.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over West Yorkshire we are identifying a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people being unsure of the way to to make use of (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you get in this situation don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians possess the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to deal with in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations pretty easily.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Wrong Fuel Assist Bradford - Bradford Vehicle Misfuel

I had a fantastic day fishing on my day off and was feeling cheerful the next morning as I was en route to aid a new couple vacationing in Bradford. They'd stopped after putting diesel in their Peugeot, and the car was around half an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal telling her man off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this goes on everyday in West Yorkshire and that it's really nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he all the same got an earful. Unlucky lad. In any case, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what my wife would do to me if ever I made the very same blunder... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
