It was just after 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were resting there commenting on the golf results, waiting for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. Finally we had the call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Thorpe Green and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda rental in error. She was quite troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a protected position and, since it was no more than a short distance off from where we were, we could find the lady fairly quickly.

AdBlue Contamination
All around Essex we have found increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not understanding the right way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
Well, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly never start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will probably need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases rather quickly.
Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be thoroughly wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it.

Fuel Removal Thorpe Green - Thorpe Green Wrong Fuel in Car

I turned up at their position and smiled while I heard to the wife telling her hubby off for being so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this happens quite frequently in Essex and that it's in reality nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he all the same had his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. At any rate, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if I made the very same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
