It was around 10 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry day, it had not ceased raining! James and me were sitting there talking about the recent golf, ready for the seventh job to arrive. In due time we got the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Isle Brewers and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW hire car by mistake. The poor lady was rather distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a protected position and, because it was only a few minutes from the office, we could find the customer right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. One more job in Somerset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Somerset we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not understanding the way to use it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you have started the car you will very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank may well cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances very swiftly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
