We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Nottinghamshire we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not knowing the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely do not crank the motor - not even to shift it into a parking area. If you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to parking bay we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Wrong Fuel Assist The Hollies - The Hollies Vehicle Misfuel

It truly was what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly 3 in the morning and hardly anyone was about. It was pretty quiet so far, and Brian and I were sitting about looking through a number of old newspapers. That was an uncommon restful time in Nottinghamshire. It was so tranquil that when the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The voice on the opposite end told me: "I just finished my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my SEAT". We got him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we set off, arriving in The Hollies less than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the motor. He said many thanks for arriving so quickly. While we were returning to base we noticed two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, to their delight.
