Paul and I were resting going over the weekend's sports, at the ready for the next job to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Longford and put petrol in her diesel Dacia rental by mistake. She was fairly irritated it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly happen.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Cheshire we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to take care of in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel will likely contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
