It was close to eight pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry night, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there talking over the footy, prepared for the seventh job to come in. In due time we got a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Chiltern Green and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Porsche hire car by mistake. The poor lady was very affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we were able to reach her without delay. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home relaxed and much less apprehensive. One more job in Bedfordshire well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Bedfordshire we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And of course don't start up the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. In case you did start the car you will almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel will bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
