It was around 8 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were sitting talking about the recent golf rankings, prepared for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Holbeck and filled petrol in her diesel SEAT lease car by mistake. She was fairly troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to get the car into a secure space and, as it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we could reach the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to return to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away calm and less concerned. Another fuel drain in Nottinghamshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination
All around Nottinghamshire we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not knowing the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will often bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.
Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be wholly wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
