It was around 7 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry day, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's football rankings, ready for the next call of the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Ossington and put petrol in a diesel Ford lease car. She was pretty troubled it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing as it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to reach her fairly quickly.

Our Areas of Expertise :

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Nottinghamshire we are identifying a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly do not start up the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can easily cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances quite simply.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Nottinghamshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, providing we can access it, we are able to empty it.
