We're just a call away.

It was just before 6 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's rugby, waiting around for the sixth telephone call to come in. Inevitably we received the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Weston Underwood and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel yellow Volvo rental car. The poor thing was pretty agitated apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I have messed up the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from our van, we were able to reach the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away calm and not so concerned. A job in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Derbyshire we have discovered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In the event that you did start the car you would likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct all types of AdBlue contamination.
