Vehicle Misfuel Croydon - Croydon Wrong Fuel
What a great night's sleep! It was 7:30 am on a sunny Tuesday and we were off to help an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel Smart in Croydon. I'd been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a rural road on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I plugged her location straight into the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I got to the destination and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been getting rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only just acquired it a few days ago because my previous car, which I'd had for more than 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a lovely Cambridgeshire lady!

AdBlue In your Fuel
All over Cambridgeshire we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the automobile.
Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And of course do not start the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking area. In cases where you did start the car you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will often trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances quite easily.
Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
