It was before 5 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and me were resting there talking over the footy, prepared for the sixth call that day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Deneside and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Chevrolet rental in error. The unfortunate thing was rather distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things sadly do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe area and, since it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman fairly quickly.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over County Durham we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from people being unsure of how to to make use of (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it immediately. And certainly take care not to switch on the car - not even to relocate it from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to address in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol is going to result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances quite expediently.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to an automobile parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
