It was just before 5 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were sitting going over the footy rankings, prepared for the sixth fuel drain to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Burnley and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai hire car by mistake. She was fairly distressed apparently, crying "I just can't believe I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to worry, plus that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure position and, because it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could find the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Lancashire done well in my mind!

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.
AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Lancashire we have seen a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the automobile.
Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And of course don't crank the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank may well cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases fairly easily.
Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Now I'm not actually so hot for doing the job weekends, and a while back was no different. I had just come away from the wife and kids after a fantastic roast made for us by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a man after he had put the wrong petrol in his MG. He was located in Burnley therefore I was with him very quickly. Just as I drove up behind the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Praise God! I stupidly had my mind on other things and didn't ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused harm as a result of driving it?" I stated that generally there should not be any kind of harm and also I would get the contaminated fuel drained quickly for him. Naturally I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and so another contented customer was able to continue on their journey without any difficulty. He could not stop thanking me, and that helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Lancashire just a tiny bit better to me!

We told her that the vehicle should be alright and that she would be back in action in no time at all.
