It was after 7 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and me were relaxing talking about the sports rankings, prepared for the 6th telephone call to arrive. Eventually we got the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Westhope and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Toyota lease car by mistake. She was very agitated it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things can happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure area and, since it was just a few minutes from where we were, we were able to reach her swiftly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could return to the Travelodge she was living at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and less stressed. Yet another job in Herefordshire done well in my opinion!

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a gloomy Wednesday and I was en route to assist an old lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel Dacia in Westhope. I had been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a backwater lane on route to visit her family. I plugged the location in the Satnav and was with her inside 60 minutes. I reached the destination and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said, "Now I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd just got it a week ago right after my previous car, which I'd owned for about thirty years, eventually died". I got the drain done and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a precious Herefordshire woman!

AdBlue In Diesel
All around Herefordshire we are identifying an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the car.
So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
Call us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases rather swiftly.
Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
