Mark and I were relaxing commenting on the tennis results, prepared for the 8th call that day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Preston and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes rental by mistake. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle!

Services We Offer:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Gloucestershire we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly be careful not to start up the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations quite simply.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out 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. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
