Eventually we got a call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Pentre-newydd and put petrol in a diesel Smart lease car. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that such things regrettably do happen.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Shropshire we have encountered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank is likely to result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases rather easily.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel.
