It was around 9 pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were seated talking over the golf, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Chiltern Green and filled petrol in a diesel Volvo lease car. She was quite distressed it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could reach her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and much less worried. Yet another job in Bedfordshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Bedfordshire we have encountered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by people being unsure of the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to deal with in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations quite easily.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
