It was about seven pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were seated talking over the recent rugby, at the ready for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we had a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Hall Cross and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Suzuki lease car. She was very troubled it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a protected area and, because it was no more than a few minutes from us, we could arrive at the woman swiftly.

We can help you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Lancashire we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not understanding the way to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is likely to lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Have a fuel tank placed at the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Lancashire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Fuel Drain Hall Cross - Hall Cross Wrong Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a terrific afternoon golfing during my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the next morning as I headed out to assist a new family who were holidaying in Hall Cross. They had broken down after inserting diesel into their Citroen, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I turned up at their position and laughed as I listened to the wife chastising her hubby for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this situation takes place on daily basis in Lancashire and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he in spite of everything got an earful. Poor boy. Anyway, I drained out the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved farewell and thought about what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the very same error... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
