In due time we had a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Stanton Drew and filled petrol in a diesel Lexus hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was very affected it seemed, crying "I can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle!

Our Areas of Expertise:

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Somerset we have noticed increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to people not being totally sure how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will likely produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases very quickly.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
