It was close to 7 pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a rainless day, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated there talking about the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting for the next call for the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Fortis Green and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda rental car by mistake. She was very irritated apparently, crying "I can not believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to move the car to a protected space and, as it was only a few minutes off from us, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and not so anxious. A fuel drain in Barnet well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Barnet we have found a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel may cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations rather simply.

Take note though that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.
