It was after 5 pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the football rankings, ready for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in North Finchley and filled petrol in a diesel Lexus hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat troubled apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing as it was just a short distance from our van, we could find the woman right away.

Listed here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do if you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical composed of a mix of high-purity ionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).Adblue tends to be disastrous to your car's fuel system, specifically if you started the car with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it right away. And most certainly take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can potentially lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances pretty expediently.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.
