It was close to ten pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and I were sitting there going over the recent sports results, prepared for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Whitnash and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen rental car by mistake. She was very affected by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!"

Our Fields of Expertise:

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Warwickshire we have noticed a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not knowing the right way to use it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely be careful not to turn over the car - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations pretty quickly.

You should know that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel.
