It was just after 7 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were seated there talking about the recent footy rankings, waiting around for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Booker and put petrol in a diesel Citroen hire car. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe area and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we could find her rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could return to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive home relaxed and much less concerned. Another fuel drain in Buckinghamshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Buckinghamshire we have noticed a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people not understanding how to to make use of (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the car.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely don't switch on the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty easily.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel.
