It was just after five pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and me were seated talking about the footy rankings, waiting around for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. In due time we had the call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Glan Conwy and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Skoda rental by mistake. She was rather troubled apparently, stating "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably can happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe position and, because it was just a few miles off from where we were, we were able to reach her right away. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Conwy we are identifying progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not being aware of how to use it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never start the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will often contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances quite swiftly.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
