It was before six pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were seated there talking about the recent tennis rankings, waiting for the sixth telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we had a call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Doncaster Common and filled petrol in a diesel Jaguar rental in error. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, and that these things regrettably happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected space and, because it was only a short distance from the office, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and much less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in South Yorkshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over South Yorkshire we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely don't switch on the car - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the event that you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can potentially result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances quite easily.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
