It was just after five pm on a Monday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were resting discussing the weekend's footy rankings, waiting for the 6th call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Wheatcroft and put petrol in a diesel Renault hire car. She was quite irritated it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure spot and, seeing that it was only a few miles from where we were, we were able to reach her quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and not so concerned. A job in Derbyshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Derbyshire we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly take care not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to address in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank will contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases very simply.

You should know that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
