It was just after 7 pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Mark and I were sitting talking over the recent football results, waiting for the 6th telephone call to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in West Lexham and put petrol in her diesel Volvo lease car in error. She was quite agitated it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected area and, as it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we could find the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got really wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Norfolk well done in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination
All over Norfolk we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the automobile.
Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And absolutely be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances fairly simply.
Remember though that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
