It was after eight pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Paul and me were sitting talking over the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Stockbridge and put petrol in a diesel partner's Peugeot Boxer hire car. The unfortunate lady was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing as it was only a few miles from us, we were able to get to the customer without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home satisfied and much less worried. A misfuel correction in West Sussex well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel
All around West Sussex we are discovering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to people not understanding the right way to use it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the automobile.
Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?
Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most certainly never turn over the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Contact us in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to correct all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Wrong Fuel in Car in PO19 Postcode - Stockbridge Misfueling
What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Saturday and we were on my way to help an older woman who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel burgundy red BMW Z4 in Stockbridge. I'd been informed she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down on a rural lane on route to see her family. I punched her location into the TomTom and arrived within an hour. I got to the car and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was working she told me, "I am getting fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel seeing that I'd only just acquired it several days ago because my previous car, which I owned for more than 25 years, eventually died on me". I finished the job and she presented me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant West Sussex lady!
