Wrong Fuel Stonehaven - Stonehaven Vehicle Misfuel
What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and we were on the way to help an elder woman who had put petrol in her diesel Citroen in Stonehaven. I'd been told she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up along a rural road on the way to visit her godchildren. I popped the location in the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I reached the location and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel since I had only just got it a few days ago after my former car, which I had owned for about 25 years, inevitably died". I got the drain done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Aberdeenshire lady!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Aberdeenshire we are discovering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.
Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course be careful not to start the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is likely to trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances rather expediently.
Take note that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be wholly wet and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to many private and business properties in Aberdeenshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Recent Fuel Drains in Stonehaven
Stories from our Stonehaven mechanics:
We got a telephone call from a individual whose Land Rover had conked out on a street because he put the wrong fuel in it. "I got the pumps confused and put petrol instead of diesel in my car by mistake. You guys arrived and sorted out the situation when my vehicle stopped." We drained the wrong fuel from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel system completely afterwards and the motorist could then go on with his deliveries.
Petrol in Diesel Stonehaven - Stonehaven Petrol in Diesel
A lady driving in Stonehaven contacted us as soon as she had managed to get her wrong fuelled vehicle to work. She had put petrol in her diesel Volkswagen and, like many before her, believed that she could basically fill the vehicle with diesel and it would run no problem. The engine was coughing and then it stopped when she came to the the front of her office. We soon started on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed within 60 minutes while she was at the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm really relieved you sorted my vehicle."
