It was after 9 pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing commenting on the recent tennis, ready for the 6th job of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Dalston and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes rental. She was rather distressed it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe position and, because it was only a few miles away from our van, we were able to reach the lady fairly quickly.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Hackney we are noticing more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely do not start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the car you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank is going to result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases rather quickly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Hackney to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages.

Petrol in Diesel Dalston - Dalston Wrong Fuel

I had a great evening cycling during my day off and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I headed out to aid a young couple who were on holiday in Dalston. They pulled over after putting petrol into their Honda, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself as I heard to the lady telling off her man for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this situation occurs on a regular basis in Hackney and that it's truly absolutely nothing to fret about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I drained out the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved good bye and considered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I would never ever live it down!
