It was close to five pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were sitting discussing the weekend's football results, at the ready for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Horringer and put petrol in her diesel Lexus rental car. She was fairly troubled it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and much less worried. Another job in Suffolk well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in case you have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made out of a mixture of urea and ionized water.Adblue can be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will correct all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can certainly lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.
