It was about 8 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were sitting there talking about the rugby rankings, waiting for the 6th call to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Radlet and put petrol in her diesel Toyota hire car in error. She was pretty troubled it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure space and, as it was only a few minutes from us, we could arrive at the customer right away. The bad fuel was extracted and she could get back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and not so worried.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in case you have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made of a mix of ionized water (67.5%) and urea.Adblue is definitely devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you started the car with Adblue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to start up the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Somerset to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages.
