It was around eight pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were resting talking over the weekend's football rankings, ready for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Esso filling station in Northover and filled petrol in a diesel Land Rover rental in error. The poor thing was somewhat agitated it seemed, crying "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle!

AdBlue In Diesel
All around Somerset we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the automobile.
Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it immediately. And definitely don't switch on the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can easily lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances quite expediently.
Take note that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Wrong Fuel in Car Northover - Northover Fuel Rescue
I had a perfect evening golfing on my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the next day as I set out to assist a new couple who were on vacation in Northover. They'd stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their MINI, and were approximately half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the wife berating her man for turning out to be so daft. "How could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this goes on constantly in Somerset and that it's nothing to fret about, even so he in spite of everything had an earful. Poor guy. At any rate, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed so long and considered what her indoors would tell me if I did the very same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Northover
Down below are examples and illustrations of fuel drains undertaken in Northover:
We performed a wrong fuel retrieval job near a beautiful residential home in Northover a few weeks ago. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to virtually reach home when my car quit." Our fuel drainer went out, even though it was pretty late at night, and did a thorough fuel drain and purge on the Ford .
Fuel Drain Northover - Northover Wrong Fuel
A young lady from Northover with her children in her diesel Porsche had filled her vehicle with £20 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She called us sobbing and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and did not know what might happen to her vehicle . We reassured her that the car should be fine and that she would be back on the road soon. When we got there she was still upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the youngsters on board."
