Eventually we had a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in The Riddle and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Land Rover lease car. The unfortunate thing was very irritated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the car to a safe spot and, since it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we were able to reach her right away.

AdBlue In Diesel
All over Herefordshire we are noticing increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not knowing the right way to work with it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the car.
Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you find yourself in this predicament don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the specialised expertise and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol is going to trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances rather expediently.
Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be wholly wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Herefordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we are able to drain it.
