It was close to 9 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were seated there commenting on the footy rankings, waiting for the sixth job for the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Port Clarence and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel MINI rental car by mistake. She was pretty agitated apparently, crying "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles off from us, we could get to the lady swiftly.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we are finding a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to motorists not understanding the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you discover youself to be in this situation don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the practical knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can easily result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances very simply.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
