It was just before 7 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were resting there discussing the rugby results, waiting around for the seventh job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Medhurst Row and put petrol in a diesel SEAT rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the car into a protected position and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we could arrive at the customer without delay.

Our Areas of Expertise :

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Kent we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to people not understanding the way to use it (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it immediately. And of course never turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel may contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases quite expediently.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Kent to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, providing we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.
