It was after seven pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were seated there going over the recent sports results, at the ready for the sixth job that day to come in. Eventually we got the call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Nunhead and put petrol in her diesel Audi rental by mistake. She was quite troubled it seemed, stating "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, as it was just a few minutes off from us, we could get to the woman quickly.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that is made from a mixture of high-purity deionized water and urea.It tends to be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, bringing about serious and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And absolutely be careful not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important condition to address in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel may well bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations quite easily.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to an automobile parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
