She was quite affected it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!"

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any related problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Oxfordshire we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people not understanding how to work with it (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to turn over the car - not even to shift it to a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol will often produce idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations fairly easily.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Wrong Fuel Assist Denton - Denton Wrong Fuel

I had a terrific evening hiking on my holiday and felt pleased the following working day as I was on the way to help a young family who were on holiday in Denton. They'd stopped after putting diesel in their Chevrolet, and the car was about an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the wife telling off her husband for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this takes place on daily basis in Oxfordshire and that it's in reality nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
