It was close to 10 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were resting commenting on the footy, waiting for the 6th fuel drain of the day to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Sacombe and put petrol in a diesel Land Rover lease car. The unfortunate thing was rather distressed apparently, stating "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected position and, because it was just a few miles off from the office, we could arrive at the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was staying in.

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can solve any related issues.

AdBlue Contamination

In Hertfordshire we have noticed a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can certainly bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations rather simply.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
