It was just after 9 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were resting going over the weekend's sports results, prepared for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Royal Leamington Spa and put petrol in a diesel Jaguar hire car. She was pretty affected it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance from the office, we could reach the lady right away. The wrong fuel was drained so she could go home to the Travelodge she was living in.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Warwickshire we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from people not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly never switch on the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to take care of in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will often trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases pretty expediently.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Warwickshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.
