It was about 7 pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and me were resting there talking over the golf results, waiting for the 8th fuel drain that day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Icomb and filled petrol in a diesel SEAT hire car by mistake. She was quite irritated apparently, saying "I still can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, since it was just a few miles away from our van, we were able to reach the lady quickly.

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in the event that you?ve put Adblue into your Diesel tank? It is definitely disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be injected into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, triggering disastrous and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And most definitely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to deal with in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank can easily bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
