It was about seven pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and me were sitting there going over the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting around for the next call of the day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Coles Meads and put petrol in her diesel BMW rental in error. The poor lady was pretty distressed it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things sadly happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected space and, because it was only a few miles from the office, we were able to find the woman right away. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off calm and less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Surrey done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Surrey we are finding a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to people not being totally sure how to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can certainly produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations pretty simply.

Take note though that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
