It was about ten pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were seated there commenting on the recent sports results, ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Holcot and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Skoda hire car by mistake. She was quite affected it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe space and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could find the woman right away. The bad fuel was drained and she could return to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off contented and a lot less concerned. A fuel drain in Northamptonshire well done in my opinion!

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Northamptonshire we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers not knowing the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly do not start up the motor - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very simply.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
