The poor thing was quite affected apparently, stating "I can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly happen.

Our Services:

Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do in case you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely devastating to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at once. And most certainly take care not to start the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations rather easily.

You should know however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
