It was around five pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing there talking about the football, ready for the 6th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Foxton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai lease car in error. The poor lady was rather agitated it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe area and, as it was just a short distance off from where we were, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off relaxed and a lot less concerned. A misfuel correction in Leicestershire well done in my opinion!

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a rainy Sunday and I was on my way to help an old sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel Toyota in Foxton. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and broken down on a backwater road en route to see her grandchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I reached the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I am getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I had only bought it a week ago when my other car, which I had owned for about 25 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain done and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a delightful Leicestershire woman!

Our Fields of Expertise:
Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected issues.
AdBlue Contamination
Throughout Leicestershire we have discovered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly stemming from drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And absolutely be careful not to start up the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both circumstances rather simply.
Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.
