It was just before 10 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing talking over the recent rugby, waiting around for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Willersey and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was pretty agitated it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, since it was just a few miles away from us, we were able to find the customer fairly quickly.

Our Areas of Expertise :

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Gloucestershire we are identifying an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not understanding the right way to use it (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 typically right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely never crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it off the pump. In case you have started the car you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations very easily.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Gloucestershire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages.
